It depends on what they are doing. There are certain things, such as the VP role, that do need to be clarified by congress. If they are just backdooring election reform I'll be pissed.


They're just hoping to clarify what role the VP plays. It won't happen because dems don't care about that, they want a complete overhaul.

And Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., reiterated his support for the effort Thursday. "I wish them well, and I'd be happy to take a look at what they can come up with," he told reporters.
Reading past the NBC News filters, this may simply mean the Turtle is just letting them play around with this, and will not seriously entertain something radical. At least one can hope, based on past Turtle experience.

Thank God, because there are currently ZERO Amendments or Federal laws that make illegal discrimination against legal voters based on their race, gender, ethnicity, religious beliefs, political viewpoints, physical or mental disabilities, sexual preferences, or economic circumstances.

It’s high time this travesty of justice finally be avoided no more…

If not for the EC protection there wouldn't be a real conservative portion of the citizenry to pushback against the Marxist/progressive madness. Conservatives will always have a politically stacked deck against them because the Dims simply offer voters free shite. How do you defeat your political opponent when their main sales pitch is conservatives are racists and we're gonna take their wealth and give it to the oppressed class?

EXACTLY CORRECT!

It looks like this is no more than an extended chapter in the Critical Race Theory Marxist attacks.. in a direct way.. who is being disenfranchised then? Free Americans, thats who.

The founders were genius with their Electoral College framework - leave it the FCK alone, aszclowns. END Critical COMMUNIST Theory - NOW!

I find it hard to believe in 2012 that many of us voted for and hoped for Mittens and his little Rino buddy Paul. My what a decade later does!

Folks that don't understand politics, should really stay away from it....what you see is rarely what you get.
It's called posturing.

I want to see what these morons have in store for Article two of the Constitution. To modify or make drastic changes requires an Amendment. Otherwise it would have been changed a long time ago. Good luck




Well, since several states shite all over Article 2 in the last election, and SCOTUS hid in the corner when it was brought to them, I wouldn't get my hopes up that anything will be done when the Senate and HOR do the same thing.
