UNCONSTITUTIONAL. What BS!
Secede.
Go.
Nobody will try to stop you.
Pretty sure the solidly republican Ohio legislature will shoot that idea down quickly.
So their solution is to eliminate the value of the votes in their states in order to allow CA and NY to be the only 2 states that determine the election?
Progressiveness is a degenerative mental disease. The longer one practices it, the stupider they become.
The National Popular Vote bill would guarantee the Presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Explanation It has been enacted into law in 11 states with 165 electoral votes (CA, DC, HI, IL, MA, MD, NJ, NY, RI, VT, WA). It will take effect when enacted by states with 105 more electoral votes. Most recently, the bill was passed by a bipartisan 40–16 vote in the Republican-controlled Arizona House, 28–18 in Republican-controlled Oklahoma Senate, 57–4 in Republican-controlled New York Senate, and 37–21 in Democratic-controlled Oregon House. It has passed one house in 12 additional states with 96 electoral votes (AR, AZ, CO, CT, DE, ME, MI, NC, NM, NV, OK, OR).
"The First Amendment is a relic of a bygone era, and we need to change this system," said Connecticut state Sen. Mae Flexer.

Wow, that was easy, wasn't it?
Was it titled the “People In New York And California Are Smarter Than Us” bill?
Urban voting results should be investigated for fraud.
Well that's the damnedest case of Constitutional nullification I've heard of.
What, now they'll just ask the State Democrat Fascist party who should win and no matter who votes for an opponent of the democrat party or the wrong democrat candidate, they'll give the electoral votes to the Fascist the party approves of?
From their point of view, a century of gerrymandering, Federal interventions based on false interpretations of various parts of the Constitution, and outright ballot box stuffing didn't work, I guess they don't have much else they can try.
Well, other than making some Fascist "President for Life".
What we need to do is make it impossible for illegals to vote. Democrat’s popular vote lead will go away when only citizens are voting, like in California.
I firmly believe Hillary the Pig only won a majority of votes cast because of rampant voter fraud. The same type of fraud that the RAT party has perpetrated for decades.
If this ever happens it will mean civil war.
Right up until a great many city dwellers leave for decent jobs in other areas, and they become ‘keep our jobs’ voters. Kinda like their filibuster idiocy. The unintended negative consequences of proggy/Democrat ideas are always fun to watch.
There is a way to get rid of the Electoral College...do it VIA a Constitutional Ammendment... you dont have the cajones to do that because its SO HARD to do and with all those time outs for safe space it would take forever and a day...
I have yet to see a pundit on TV talk about the Constitutional ammendment process...probably because its easier to bitch than work...but i digress...
so you whiney folks push this thru and watch TRUMPS strict constructionist court tell you to start all over again and go thru the Consitutional convention process
They would have to amend the Constitution, like if they wanted a British subject to be able to run, oh, wait.......
They think a Republican will never win the popular vote again. This is the election "fix" Trump was warning about.
they cannot do this., we are in USA and we have a constitution. THEY CAN propose a constitutional amendment if they wish, and who knows it could possibly pass someday just like the (mostly harmful, alas) 17th amendment (not to mention the extraordinarily harmful 16th amendment)
our country does provide proper mechanisms if the D leftwing wishes to pursue their agenda
This must be stopped. Using the popular vote to elect a President is unconstitutional.
“requiring Connecticut to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.”
Also, states cannot enter into treaties with each other.
This idiots all flunk civics?
Once patriots work with Trump to peacefully “force” the corrupt feds to surrender state powers that the feds have stolen from the states back to the states, then even the Democrats will lose interest in DC imo.
