Can anyone explain to me why we need to get all in a dither about this? Should North Carolina, or any state, pass such a bill it would be unconstitutional according to Artiele II and the 12th Amendment of the Constitution.
The Federal Government cannot/will not allow any state to circumvent the Federal election process. That will take an amendment to the Constitution.
R U a lawyer? I wish I could believe you but the way things are going, I don’t trust the Dims or their manipulation of our system of government.
"The measure, being pushed by the California-based National Popular Vote organization, would kick in only if states representing a majority of the nation's 538 electoral votes decided to make the same change."
But this is being pushed in 40 states!!!! The Dems will not stop until they succeed in overturning this important protection in the Constitution against the domination of Presidential politics by the heavily populated (urban) centers of this nation!
IT MUST BE PUBLICIZED AND STOPPED AT EVERY TURN!
Oh contraire mon frier, the States can pass concurrent resolutions and then send them to the Congress as long as 2/3 of the states join in, a amendment can originate in the states.
NC is so heavily controlled by the Dhimicrat machine it is not even, funny believe me on that.
The Constitution allows the States to determine how their electoral votes are decided. If NC decides to award their electoral votes based on the results of the national popular vote, that is thier choice, and it is legal and Constitutional.
The only chance that I’ve seen of this being unconstitutional has to do with the states entering into a pact to agree to do this only when enough other states have enacted the same legislation.
