Ranked Choice Voting is almost as dumb as the National Popular Vote movement.
There are a few states that have adopted NPV as the law of their state. What it means is this: no matter WHO wins the state’s popular vote in an election, the state’s electoral votes go to whoever wins the popular vote in the NATION.
16 states and the District of Columbia have already passed this crap, which puts the electoral college number at 205. Last May, the Marxists in Minnesota put the law in place. Minnesota has 10 electoral votes.
So, let’s say in 2024 the Republican wins Minnesota by 1%. (Just imagine). But the Democrat operative wins the National Vote by 1%. All ten of Minnesota’s votes go to the Demonrat.
This reverses the wishes of the majority of Minnesota voters.

are the states with NPV laws on the books. The change over goes into effect AS SOON AS enough states with 270 electoral votes pass a similar provision.
Republicans in these states need to work on repealing these laws that are against what our founders intended. We were given the electoral college to protect the voters in each state...these laws take away the voting rights of the citizens and put the power in the hands of 49 other states and the corrupt District of Columbia.
I am fairly sure there will be a legal challenge to this once it goes into effect.
Of course, I don’t trust our court system.
