They’ve waited for the general electorate to be so frickin stupid they could pull it off, and they think the time is now

You may be right but once the left wins in 28 and packs the Supreme Court with people who hate the Electoral College this alliance will be ruled constitutional and thatll be the end of it. It only takes a majority of SC justices to overnight eliminate anything in the Constitution.

If you're voting for the prom queen at a 200-person high school, that's a great way to do it. If you're voting for a president of 350 million people spread out over 50 states and 4 million square miles, it's a terrible way to do it.

California and New York alone make up 17% of the total US population.

11 counties would essentially control our elections. What a great system that is.

11 counties in areas with zero voter id requirements. If those 11 counties magically produce 300 million Democrat votes good luck finding a judge with the stones to do anything about it.

Not the first time Kinzinger was wrong and whined about it.

It would be the most Democrat Party thing ever for them to abolish the electoral college, win Texas, and then lose the popular vote.

The worst case scenario you envision would likely result in Centrist Democrats splitting with Progressive Democrats and those would be the two major party platforms.

I assume this is great news to libs and never Trumpers. This is what you wanted right? Gun rights revoked, open borders, an even more fricked election process. This is what you voted for, yes?

It will be even better when nothing gets cheaper.
