Yeap the Leftist mantra for over a century. They claim they are shocked when there are "unintended" consequences. I guess Mr. Holder never heard of Chesterston's Fence.
Translation: “Abolish the electoral college. If Trump gets in, I may be going to jail.”
Holder should run for president of Liberia.
I learned about the Electoral College in high school. It’s sort of been that way for a while. If dems that there was a problem with it, they should have done something about it.
I guess Eric Holder was leaning about then black panthers, Saul Alinsky, etc., while we were learning basic things about our nation’s history.
Abolish H0lder.
The only way to do this is through the Amendment process. I don’t think 2/3 of the state legislatures are going to agree to have their only power to compete with the huge urban centers eliminated.
Eric, buddy, your time is up. Go away.
Hey you d*ck, we are a republic not a democracy. GFY!
Perhaps it should be changed to the number of electors assigned to each state represented by the number of senators it has: two, and none for DC.
This POS should have stayed in his hole. He’s just reminded us to add him to a long list to investigate.
The Constitution and the Electoral College: “Convict Eric Holder for treason and imprison him”.
The effect of the electoral college is derided as ‘giving dirt a vote,’ because it amplified the potency of sparsely populated states. It turns out to do even more. The EC dilutes the strength of heavily populated states, forming a barrier to various Californias who would otherwise impose their leftism on red state America by a simple majority.
The republic as envisioned is dead. Get used to it. It was killed off in the end by Dubya Bush’s USSC decision Gonzales v Raisch. The electoral college is a barbed wire fence holding back the howling northern winds. Urban masses are experiencing the Founders’ poison pill.
Since (apparently) absentee ballots aren’t counted, how could we know what the popular vote really is?
abolish eric
Gosh - what a surprise. I wonder if he realizes that, if they only counted votes from living American citizens, Trump would have won by several million....
The biggest danger to the Electoral College is the ongoing National Popular Vote
The National Popular Vote bill would guarantee the Presidency to the candidate who receives the most popular votes nationwide (i.e., all 50 states and the District of Columbia). It has been enacted into law in 11 states with 165 electoral votes, and will take effect when enacted by states with 105 more electoral votes. The bill has passed one chamber in 12 additional states with 96 electoral votes. Most recently, the bill was passed by a bipartisan 4016 vote in the Republican-controlled Arizona House, 2818 in Republican-controlled Oklahoma Senate, 574 in Republican-controlled New York Senate, and 3721 in Democratic-controlled Oregon House.
Weiner - Holder 2020!
Here is the way I look at it: I look at who is for, and who is against this abolishment of the Electoral College.
It is OVERWHELMINGLY liberal moonbats and people like Eric Holder. I won’t be on the same side on any issue whatsoever with them, so this makes it easy, even though I have taken the time over the years to educate myself on what the Electoral College is, how it works, and why it was put in place.
This just makes it an easy binary decision for me.
Abolish the stench of Holder...and all leftists who cannot handle LOSING.
