Hillary Calls For End To Electoral College

ALBANY, New York, Nov. 20, 2000

---

(AP) Senator-elect Hillary Rodham Clinton began a victory tour of upstate New York Friday by calling for elimination of the Electoral College.

At an airport news conference, the first lady said she would support legislation seeking a constitutional amendment providing for the direct election of the president.

At the moment, Americans are waiting to see who wins Florida's 25 electoral votes and thus becomes the next president. Vice President Al Gore leads Republican George W. Bush in the popular vote nationwide.

"We are a very different country than we were 200 years ago," Clinton said. "I believe strongly that in a democracy, we should respect the will of the people and to me, that means it's time to do away with the Electoral College and move to the popular election of our president."

The first lady also said that because of the closeness of this year's presidential election, "I hope no one is ever in doubt again about whether their vote counts."

I also remember her mentioning and pushing some Constitutional Professor/Scholor

I can't remember his name though


I said it before and I'll say it again ... I will hold my nose in the General Election to make sure the Democrat Party never regains control

But the primaries .. if there is a candidate other then an incumbent that I think can beat the dems .. then I'll vote for them

I think you are absolutely on target about the electoral college.

I believe Shrillery will do everything she can to be queen of NORTHAM or whatever region of 10 this will turn out to be in the global government.

Hideous bwitch.
