Under the current system, not everyone’s vote counts the same. You are penalized if you happen to live in a populous state. Under a popular vote, everyone in America gets an equal vote. Seems fair.
It would just crank up vote harvesting.

If only white land owners can vote, I'm for it.

Scary people like you get to vote

It's set up a specific way now. You just want to change the rules.

Yeah you really don’t. Maybe you should brush up on your history.

The US is a Constitutional Republic.
If you want to live in a Democracy, then YOU should move to Russia.
Their elected leader won big.
You should be happy there.

How stupid are you?

How old are you? Really curious bc it helps show when the Dept of Ed stopped teaching this basic concept in civics.

This ignorance alone should disqualify you from voting

Have you heard of this document called the Constitution of the United States? 12 million illegal voters should not decide our elections.

Democracy is two wolves and a rabbit deciding what's for dinner.
Posted on 12/20/23 at 8:18 am to Tvilletiger
Horrible idea. This is a completely asinine post.

Find a better candidate
Your side's candidate put up someone who didnt campaign and who clearly has dementia....and that candidate got the "majority" vote. Its clear that the "majority" doesnt care about the candidates.

I can't believe this nonsense keeps being brought up. Give it up. It ain't gonna happen for the same reason it didn't happen in the past.

My Lord....
The thing that made America the greatest nation in Earth's history, is that it is a Constitutional Republic.
As such, it is set up in a way that the little guy that doesn't live in the big city and have big city ideas, actually has an equal shot at winning.
Take that away and switch to a popular vote, and what do you get? GenZ TikTok addicts that eat Tide Pods, Millennial dancing nurses demanding to be called heroes, Hamas-supporting college kids, Range Rover driving suburban Karens, an entire army of Prius drivers, and blue haired anqueefers and feminazis deciding who is President every four years while farmer Joe is taxed more and more completely out of existence and without ANY representation.
Is that really what you want?

We aren’t a pure democracy we are a constitutional republic.
Popular vote would mean California and New York along with some large cities decide every election and nobody would give middle America the time of day.
It would ensure Dems remain in power forever
