Absolutely. If a republican wins the popular vote 50% of the time, this means that states which would normally vote dem 100% of the time will now vote dem only 50% of the time. They will have voluntarily disenfranchised themselves.
The only downside is if there is an amnesty of all illegals in this country, they would all illegally vote dem (given the lack of voting controls in blue states).
Wow. My first double-post. Sorry :^)
“The only downside is if there is an amnesty of all illegals”
Amnesty only matters in states without motor voter.
Here in Illinois, to be registered to vote at the DMV, all you have to do is check 2 boxes, 1 that states you are an American Citizen, and 1 that states that you reside in such and such county.
There is no verification of citizenship. Your drivers license is proof enough, and you don’t have to be a citizen to get a drivers license.
Now, according to the law, after an election, votes can be challenged. But, who is going to know after an election if so and so is a citizen or not?
Their policy here is to issue a voter card, and then, later, IF someone challenges your vote, they will check it out.
But, we all know, that stating that you think a Hispanic is Illegal is classified as racist, and is not grounds (here at least) for disputing a vote. You have to have hard evidence, and this is what they bank on. Maybe a few people can come up with hard evidence that a couple Mexicans are illegal, but not enough to change the votes of the 1-2 million that have already voted.
Oh, and they get picked up and bussed to the polling place I have been informed, or they vote at their Hispanic Churches.
Why the republicans ever let this motor voter shenanigans take place is beyond me.
It’s a bad idea because when 50 percent of the electoral college votes according to the majority, then representation for Republicans is nil.
