Democratic consultant Chris Lehane called the plan “an effort to rig the system in order to fix the election.”
That’s funny coming from a party that’s actively trying to get states to ignore the voters in the state and cede all electoral college votes to the candidate who gets the most votes in the nationwide popular election. Personally I think both ideas are bad.
In a state where the 9th Circuit would jump on this plan , where even Arnold would gripe, this idea has no chance to survive. I would love it for Ca. since I am a citizen there but in other states, it would kill the Pubs. Ox being gored, pardon me using that name, is the template.
