It’s a bad idea because when 50 percent of the electoral college votes according to the majority, then representation for Republicans is nil.

It doesnt matter. Constitution says it is up to the states to decide how their electors are decided.

If Massachusettes wants to disenfranchise themselves, that’s their problem.

There is no way in hell a majority of states would pass this law. Maybe a few far left states will, but the swing states never will because they love the attention they get.

A Republican has a snowball’s chance in hell of winning MA in a presidential election anyway. If the Republican in 2012 gets a majority of the popular vote, we get MA’s 12 electors. Sounds good enough to me. And then no left-wing state will ever pass a law like this anywhere.
