There is nothing in the Constitution to stop that nonsense either. Although I can’t see small states red or blue going for it and reducing attention paid to them.

This is yet another attempt to change the federal republic the Founders set up for a spurious “democracy”. Direct election of Senators was the biggest move away from the Founders to date.

There was a good article about an MIT professor defending the Electoral college, he likened it to the world Seies, but it's not coming up.

Lib/marxists won't be happy until they destroy the Republic and make us a "democracy".

Democracy = mob rule
