A number of states have joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which would give the states’ electoral votes to the candidate who wins the popular vote.

And should be decisively disenfranchised with immediate withdrawal of state status.

Our balkanization cannot be too far into the future with stupidity like 'National Popular Vote Interstate Compact'.

Better idea, AOC....you go.

We’ll keep our Electoral College, our Constitution and our Bill of Rights.

We have done just fine before you arrived on the scene and we shall do the same when you are just a bad memory.

“Could you imagine if we had this kind of democracy-altering ‘fairness’ provision for literally any other group? If we weighed, for example, black and indigenous voters more because of unfairness?”

Like college admissions, AOC?

“Facts are facts America,” said the 29-year-old progressive, who represents parts of the Bronx and Queens. “The Electoral College has to go.”

Facts are facts, Representative Cortez. The highest law of the land, The United States Constitution, requires members of Congress to swear and be bound by an oath of office. You swore and signed that oath which requires you to: “...support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic;...bear true faith and allegiance to the same...”. Yet you attack the Constitution's Electoral College and attempt to subvert it outside of your congressional duties. That is treason!

Representative Cortez, you are a traitor! You are also an idiot.

“Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) on Monday called the U.S. Electoral College “a scam” that negatively affects minorities.”

FACT:

Democrat Dominated Cities:

SF - Excrement Capital of America
LA - Re-introducing the PLAGUE to AMerica
CHICAGO - Murder Capital of the United States

This is what this buffoonish child wants for the country, to be run like one of the numerous FAILING cities where Democrats have ruined everything.

NO THANKS

Oops, AOC, not AOL.

That's embarrassing to make a mistake like that when I'm calling someone stupid. Karma, I guess. But I'll stand my track record against AOC's any day.

The Electoral College Is a ‘Scam’

Whose agenda would espouse this assertion and why?

... the U.S. Electoral College “a scam” that negatively affects minorities.

Was she listening to Biden, who said he's from the smallest state with the eighth highest black population?

That kind of thinking leads to genius conclusions like blacks in Delaware only get 3 electoral college votes while blacks in Texas get 38 electoral college votes.

Of course, this totally ignores the fact that the states vote for President, not the people. I don't know what a "minority" state looks like.

AOC hasn’t figured out yet that Trump stopped the 16 year Obama/Hillary plan to destroy America.
