Excuse me. All the states have to do is change the rules after the game has been played?
So this clown suggests that states change their laws to protect a political party for national office.
Let’s just waste time, resources, and money to play games. What do the voters in said states think about this?
I am so over political parties in this country. It’s clear it has become religion to many.
States could theoretically do this.
The constitution indicates that states shall choose presidential electors in a manner decided by the state.
The point is, a state legislature could change the way electors are chosen.
48 out of 50 states choose electors on a winner take all basis, where the statewide winner of the popular vote gets all of the electors.
There is not even a legal requirement that states have a popular vote for president, to choose presidential electors.
It surprises some people to learn, that you do not have a constitutional right to vote in a presidential election.
The manner in which your state chooses members to the electoral college is completely up to each state legislature.
Leftists like Michael Moore keep pushing this idea, so I presume that at the end of the day it ain’t good for our side.
Legal to diddle the allegiance of electors but why? The 12th Amendment already contains provisions for a 3-way contest. Maybe the author should go read that before having each state change their own rules for elector selection. After all, there are 26 states that have faithless elector laws that bind them to the state voters’ choice.
Let them try. Double secret probation will cause Trump to third party.
