This is nothing but idle musing ... designed solely to change our country from a Republic to a Democratic (Socialist) state ... without having to amend the Constitution (e.g., by have an activist judge declare the EC vote invalid on the basis of “fairness” or, more likely, by encouraging the states to pass laws to have their EC members vote according to the national result rather than the state’s result.)
I had a friend who, if they lost any kind of contest, would steer all conversation away from the winner’s victory and dwell on his own “coulda woulda shoulda” spin.
