It takes 3/4 of the States to ratify an Amendment to the Constitution: The Electoral College is safe

[CrusaderFrank]

My presidential vote has never counted because of the EC. Half of America gets their vote thrown in the trash because of this thing that was only ever meant to keep the slaves enslaved.

My vote in NY is canceled by an illegal then exceeded by a dead guy

 

[Seawytch]

You are 100% correct. Every election would be decided by the States with the most people. All the smile states votes would count for nothing.

No, every election would be decided by the people of America. Each vote having equal value rather than the current system of a vote in Wyoming being worth 3 times the vote of a Californian. One person, one vote.

Still lying?

Once again each state has a minimum of two senators for states rights


.

I'm talking about the weight of electoral college votes, not senators. Educate yourself before calling someone a liar.

For example, in 2008, on average a state is awarded one electoral vote for every 565,166 people. However, Wyoming has three electoral votes and only 532,668 citizens (as of 2008 estimates). As a result each of Wyoming's three electoral votes corresponds to 177,556 people. Understood in one way, these people have 3.18 times as much clout in the Elector'Ial College as an average American, or 318%​

Population vs. Electoral Votes - Fairvote

They get the three from 2 senators and one based on population..


They get the minimum allowed, what do you want them to have zero so they can't fight states like Washington State who is trying to mess with Wyoming's economy?

You assume liberals will obey the law and Constitution, you are wrong.

Which part of the Constitution

Good thing, too.

Nobody is abolishing the electoral college. They are working within it to see that the majority is actually represented.

even if it's at the expense of the smaller states?

this really how we push a UNION of American citizens?

Are you OK with it being used to disenfranchise millions of voters in the larger states?

Larger state have more EC votes, they're not at all "disenfranchised"

Smaller states EC votes carry more weight. Larger states are indeed disenfranchised by the electoral college.

Make you a deal, Hillary becomes President of Los Angeles takes the illegals, nonliving and Antifa Progressives with her and we build Our Wall around it

I never wanted Clinton to be president, and I hate LA.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

Sure. By your logic, every elected official in your state from dog catcher to governor was elected by mob rule then.

Wrong. One of their electoral votes corresponds to 532,668 people.
The other two are unrelated to their population.
