I don’t understand why California would do this. Their EVs will almost always go to a Democrat. This makes it possible for a Republican to win them all. It makes no sense, since California is completely dominated by Democrats.

The effort started after Al Gore won the popular vote in 2004, but George W. Bush won the electoral vote.GROSS CONCEPTUAL ERROR. Freaking morons.

This is a good thing. Cali hasn’t gone Republican for a long time, so it doesn’t hurt our side at all. Woo Hoo!

Lawmakers have taken a step to make California more less relevant in presidential politics Fixed it.

This is a huge threat to our freedom. The left-wing will manipulate the vote in every election under a system of the popular vote.
Out of all of the very difficult issues we all have to deal with this one is possibily the most dangerous. This is a straight forward effort by socialists to undermine the electoral process and rig elections.

What they're not saying is that they have a time machine they got on the Internet. They are going to go back to November 2000.

"Lawmakers have taken a step to make California

There, Fixed it. With CA's electors chosen by the popular vote in the entire country, then candidates will not care about issues specific to CA.

Typical lib stepping on their own crank. They just put CA in play for the GOP. There’s no need for the GOP pres candidate in CA, all she or he has to do is do well in the other states and CA’s electoral votes will give the GOP the WH.

Maryland did this a few years ago and the ignorant citizens have no idea what they lost. A vote in Maryland used to be worth 1 out of 1.5 million votes to determine 10 Electoral college votes. Their vote is now valued at 1 out of 120+ million.
