Somebody will be along shortly to tell you to go back to sleep.

Personally I take it seriously.

I say that IF a majority of states pass this initiative then MY state refuse to recognize a President chosen by this method, especially if the old method (the electorial college) would have chosen a different person!

Every time a Democrat president is in trouble the calls for this stupid, unconstitutional idea always come back. The same calls mysteriously go away whenever a Democrat either wins an election or is somehow popular.

0bama must be in some serious trouble.

no electoral college pretty much means no representation for states like Road Island, Idaho and other states with small populations

Couldn’t the states not participating in the “Compact” withhold their vote counts? That would make it difficult for the “Compact” states to appoint their electors based on a nationwide vote.
