Maybe this is why Dianne Feinstein recently said, just scrap the Electoral College and have direct popular election of the Pres. and VP.

Study that one real hard. Without the EV, the red states would be discounted...The Big Cities, read Blue, would rule supreme. The Founding Fathers knew what they were doing.

Think on this: Hitlery is determined to kill the EV. That should tell you all you need to know.

OTHH, My state, Maine, does have the District formula and splits the EV's according to the district votes. This at least gives the republican voters some say.

Really.

How many electoral votes has George Bush gotten from Maine?
