“Big cities are doing us in.”

That’s right and yesterday there was talk on Fox about potentially eliminating the Electoral process.

About time we try a blue state/GOP state president. Have a leader of all the red states with different policies and a leader of all the blue with different policies. Same with the legislature. Split it up.

Then see which “country” within the nation does better.

At least people will be happy with their government on both sides.

And when I saw all the voting fraud going on in Philadelphia and the OH cities I was thinkin that wipes out all the rest of the State.

Yeah I noticed that FOX has been pimping the national popular vote snake oil lately.

The 17th amendment provides a perfect example of what's wrong with the popular vote. Here in Michigan we have a state government firmly in the hands of the GOP yet, Detroit, Ann Arbor, and Flint keep electing Stabenow and Levin for us.

Prior to the 17th amendment the state legislature chose two senators to represent the state. and if they failed to do so they could be removed almost immediately. Now we send these idiots to Washington and they override the wishes of the state from the federal level and are virtually untouchable.

The national popular vote is snake oil sold under the label of empowerment when it actually does the opposite.
