BREAKING: Senate Democrats Introduce Bill to Abolish Electoral College
Gateway Pundit ^ | December 16, 2024 | Cristina Laila

A group of Senate Democrats introduced a bill to abolish the Electoral College.

Democrats hate middle America– they want the coastal elites to choose the president of the United States.

Ever since Trump won the election against Hillary Clinton in an electoral landslide, the Democrats have been vowing to end the electoral college.

“A group of Senate Democrats introduce bill to abolish the Electoral College, restoring democracy by allowing the direct election of presidents through popular vote alone,” the Senate Judiciary Committee said on Monday.

Democrat Senators released statements on their latest effort to erode the US Constitution.

“In an election, the person who gets the most votes should win. It’s that simple. No one’s vote should count for more based on where they live. The Electoral College is outdated and it’s undemocratic. It’s time to end it,” Senator Schatz said.

"It is time to retire this 18th century invention that disenfranchises millions of Americans. The American people deserve to choose all their leaders,” Senator Durbin said.

Every one of those miserable, communist basstids stood up and took/swore an oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution. This act outright violates that oath, and they should immdiately be removed from office for it....it’s time to play hardball with these commie basstids.

Yep. Amending the Constitution is not trivial.

Indeed.....this is Amendment-level stuff. The bill’s sponsor is an idiot.

The Electoral College is outdated and it’s undemocratic. Damn right it is, that’s the whole point.

I’m pretty sure this same bill is introduced in every new Congress.

Let's counter it with a bill to repeal the 17th amendment. Direct election of Senators is undemocratic to the states that the Senate was designed to represent.

Good luck stopping California from “casting” 50 million votes each election.

You are right. The problem is that today’s R’s don’t have the balzz to confront D’s with any force greater than a sternly worded letter.
