The Electoral College protects and gives voice to the minority voter (the loser). Period. For Leftists to overthrow the EC is to betray those they supposedly support.

But it is in-keeping with their tyrannical quest for power.

All of that is true, but in my opinion the California proposal is *not* an "overthrowing" of the EC, unlike some of the other proposals out there.

Even a casual student of the French Revolution understands the tyranny of a the mob and the anarchy that resulted. So did our founders.

The Electoral College was established to keep the selection process out of the hands of the rabble. It works. Today in California, it prevents our majority Mexican interlopers from selecting the president of the US.
