Interesting in theory.

Texas has four new seats, three of which are supposedly based on Hispanic influx. Those EC votes will go to Romney. The South is gaining EC influence at the expense of the North and Rust belt. The South also (not coincidentally) has the largest influx from our Southern Border.

To the extent this theory is true, it operationally benefits Republicans.

I did the math.

Approximately 25 million people in the 2010 Census cannot vote.

More than 8% of our population.

But each one of them is counted to determine the electoral votes and the number of Congressmen in each state.

Roughly 11 million illegals.

Roughly 14 million Legal Residents (work visas, Green Cards, foreign students, etc.).

This article is essentially commenting on the differential between proportional representation by voter and the distribution of votes in the EC.

The EC heavily favors the GOP. The EC gives one vote to each state for each senator and rep. This means smaller population states get a huge boost in their representation versus larger states.

More of the smaller states are red than blue. Of the six states with 20 or more electoral votes, NY, CA and IL are reliably blue, PA leans that way, TX is reliably red, and FL swings.

Of the 8 states with only three EC votes, five are red and three are blue.

Illegals are just doing the job for our REAL enemies, and they don’t realize it.

Hopefully they will wake up and join the people who really do want
to keep America from being taken over.

They too will not go unscathed in the end.
