That means she wants the President to be chosen by two states ... California and New York and forget about the rest of the country.

You would run a campaign based on NY, Florida, west coast states, and just forget completely on states like Iowa, Dakotas, and Wyoming.

You might as well end the primary season, and just run it all in two weeks in June, have the convention in July, and then go full bore in the six states with highest population density. In fact, the more likely candidates to win will be California or Florida governors from this point on out.

And that's why the Founding Fathers created the Electoral College in the first place. The LAST thing they want is a tyrrany of the majority--i.e., demagoguery.

Massive voting fraud in both states involving the registration of non citizen aliens and the harvesting of their “votes”. Soon people will lose faith in the validity of the electoral process. Fits the Left’s globalist narrative to destroy the American nation. The culture is being eroded.

Not “California and New York” ... “Coastal California and New York City”.

The progressive Uniparty took the check and balance off the Senate with the 17th Amendment..completely removing the States and local elected officials...why not go after the Electoral College... the check on the Office of the President.

Next up... Term Limits... then the Uniparty swamp bureaucracy will have completed the end of the Republic and have complete control of the Federal government.

1. Most people do not know what it means or

2. They approve of the consequences.

I agree there should be changes to the electoral college. Not based on the popular vote. As most of you know the electoral college is made up of electors equal to the number of representatives in the House and Senate plus 3 from DC. The change I would propose would be the winner of the various congressional districts in each state would go to the person for whom the majority of that district voted.

The two votes for the two votes allocated for each senator would be given to the winner of the popular vote of that state.

This way NYC, L.A., Chicago, Seattle, etc... would not control the vote for the whole state.
