“Take the voter fraud out of the popular vote and then let the RATs talk.”

We have grown so much in 200 years that we do need to change the electoral system. I propose we do it by county, with each county regardless of size gets the same vote. Most counties won in the state gets the electoral vote. Same with the senate. Congressional districts can remain the same.

This solves some very serious issues. For one, while it doesn’t stop cheating, it restricts it to one county. That’s an effective mitigation strategy and sets up firewalls. Plus, if Democrats want to continue with the no voter ID position, let them do it in their counties. Orange County will have the same vote as Los Angeles County. Who cares if Clinton won LA County with 1.5 million more votes than Trump. It only accounts for 1 point in the big picture.

The second thing it does is it forces congressional Democrats into a position which they cannot defend. You can either support voter ID, or support a system where voter ID is not needed, but will be enforced at the county level, taking the complexity at the state level that the rats say exists out of the equation.

I would submit this as an issue that should go in front of a constitutional convention.
