NO CITY STATES !
Isn’t one of the states that voted to give their electoral votes to the popular vote winner? Sounds they’re making the like argument for the EC.
Now, now, let’s not be so hasty. I, for one, would welcome a State of Chicagoland that took in not only all of Cook County, IL but also Lake County, IN (Gary, etc.), Lake County, IL, and Kenosha, Racine and Mileaukee Counties in WI (with GOP areas not on the lakefront being given the option of seceding from those counties and remaining in their current states). I’d gladly spot the RATs 12 guaranteed EVs from the State of Chicagoland in return for our 11 safely GOP EVs from the detoxed State of Illinois, 11 safely GOP EVs from the Gary-less State of Indiana, and 9 safely GOP EVs from the Milwaukee-less State of Wisconsin. A 31-12 GOP advantage in EVs from the WI-IL-IN region is a lot better than our 21-20 EV advantage from the area in 2016 (with Trump’s narrow 0.76% victory in WI keeping us from a 30D, 11R EV result) and leagues better than the 42-0 RAT EV drubbing from 2018 (when Obama’s margin in Gary far exceeded his statewide victory margin).
I am for anything that nets us Senate seat. Crook County on it’s own would add 2 GOP seats from Restinois.
