Democrats want to ensure that their candidate will win the national popular vote, instead of the Electoral College vote. But Trump would take both because Conservatives in blue states would vote.

What about liberals and illegals voting in red states?

Which effect would take precedence?

Motivation is the key.

Trump pulled almost 63-million votes in 2016. At this point, you can project out that black male-Trump-vote will be double what it was in 2016. You can also project that the Latino vote for Trump in 2016....probably doubles this time around.

Then you go and calculate the election being either a Joe Biden situation or Mayor Pete situation. Neither bring charisma or excitement to average or potential Democratic voters.

So I would guess that Trump takes his 2016 thirty states that he won, and his national public vote goes to around sixty-five million...so he wins both ways. But this Electoral College rule change in these 15-odd states...will result in an enormous win, and various challenges by people who are angry that their vote in California....actually went to Donald Trump.

The way I see it:

Blue State conservatives who normally might stay home, will come out in droves to enhance a ‘nationalized’ vote for President Trump

Lib voters in red states (which haven’t signed onto the NPV nonsense) will come out but it won’t be enough to get their state tends to turn red. Purple states will be pretty much a toss-up

All the President needs to do is hold 4-5 rallies per week in locations of his choosing. The MSM won’t be able to avoid the lure of a huge (YUUGE?) TV audience. The election becomes much more ‘nationalized’ than ever before. The President ‘Trumps’ them all!!!!

..as usual

The electoral system inclusion made the Constitution
palpable to the less populous states. Screw with it
and the contract is broken. I’d say the less populous
states would have every right to secede. Imagine a
new nation separating E.Commieland from W. Commieland.

As I understand it, the so-called national popular vote thing won’t take effect unless the total EV from the states adopting this risky scheme equals 270 or more. Right now it stands at 189, with the big blue states already counted in that total. There is legislation pending in additional states totaling 89 votes, but most of them are red or purple.

It’s unlikely that they will reach the 270 threshold.

Consider the chaos in Floriduh in 2000, and make it nation wide for 2020. That’s what the Electoral College, as envisioned by the founders, will prevent. The luxury of knowing who the next president will be the night of the election, or even the next day will be a quaint memory of the past. We will see recounts and lawsuits for months that may even take us past inauguration day in 2021.

The Electoral College is the firewall against massive illegal voting.

It is NOTHING compared to Rs who stay home in CA and NY.

I vote absentee since 2008 because I still receive absentee from old head injury and I think I would vote anyway in the presidential elections.

I THINK. When the margin gets to be Ridiculous and if they only person who has a shot on the ticket, your house member, isn’t on it, many stay home.

Many millions more votes would come from the western and eastern coasts.

If Trump cannot get control of the urban vote each large Democrat controlled city in each red or blue state will produce enough manufactured votes to offset any Republican majority in the rest of each state with such a city. That was tried to a much lesser degree but much more openly in the last two national elections than vote fraud has been conducted in the past. It was discovered that there is no penalty for it and the vote counts as revised and re-e₫revised in these cities being accepted without a murmur and now with email voting in some places and earlyand late voting everywhere and absentee ballots being aggressively pushed out to everyone who will take them and to voting activists if they won't take them I cannot see any way for the Republicans to win another election. We are heading for a Lenin Moment or a Napoleon Moment.

Make plans now to take off voting day from work. Be a poll watcher. Take someone with you. Write down everything and coordinate with your election officials. We need to see who votes and if they allow voting fraud in any district.

He can’t win in a landslide but he should win handily and even the popular vote

California wil never vote GOPe now because whites are a minority there now

No landslide without Kali

New York and Illinois ditto

Trump’s #1 opponent in 2020 is voter fraud.

If you think about it, the president has NOT lost any of his base (except maybe Ann Coulter), and HAS to have peeled off many voters because of the economy, blexit, the support for Jews, Latino unemployment, #walkaway, prison reform, second chance, etc.

His base can only be growing. The HATE vote has to be shrinking.

This “national vote compact” looks an awful lot like sedition. How is this not an open plan to subvert the Constitution?

In 2016, Jack and Jill run up the hill.
Jill was ahead after 80 yards but at 100 yards Jack reached the pail first.
Jill complains endlessly that she won the 80-yard race and that the pail is rightfully hers.

In 2020, Jack is much stronger, Jill much weaker.
I would wager that Jack leads at both 80 and 100 yards.

“It is NOTHING compared to Rs who stay home in CA and NY.”

If the citizens of NY haven’t realized that the rats screw them at every opportunity, then they deserve what they get. DeBlahBlah is a commie fraud and Cuomo is corrupt. There are no gibmedats for the rats.
