Yessiree Bob.

Motor voter register a bazillion illegals. Dump millions of ballots in the mail to voter rolls that have never been verified and are never purged. Empower vote harvesters to collect the ballots and send them in with no voter id, signature match or any other verification method.

What could go wrong?

Next time around, the democrats will get 81 million votes out of California alone.

This is ignorant, arrogant city dwellers thinking that they know more than the people who grow their food and shouldn’t have to listen to the rednecks.

This is what brings all cities and civilizations down. They forget to respect the rubes and hicks who grow their food.

Sure, you can send armies to kill farmers and confiscate the food. That works exactly once and then everyone starves.

Send armies of bureaucrats out here to tell us how it’s done, there will be no damn food.

No problem at all.

The Founders provided for the Constitution to be amended in Article-V.

Good luck to the 63% in getting 38 states to ratify such a change...

This is gargantuan proof that the public school system and colleges have done enormous damage to this country.

I’d be willing to compromise and have every state go the way Nebraska and Maine do it.

Whomever wins the most votes in each Congressional district gets one Electoral vote. Whomever wins the most votes statewide gets two electoral votes.

Wait until a Hispanic Republican wins the popular vote in the next 20 years. Suddenly, everyone will be fine with the Electoral College.

Not necessarily. The states that want this are passing laws that their state’s electors will go to the winner of the national popular vote. So this could be implemented without technically eliminating the EC. The good news - only lib states would want this, and in an election where their EC votes are adequate, their guy would win anyway, so it doesn’t necessarily do anything so long as they can’t get the free states to go along.

Flip side of that is that Utah & Oklahoma could each get 37MM R votes.

Do it by county. Whoever wins the popular vote in a county gets one point. Most points gets the state’s electoral votes. This way cheating is localized.
