And?

They said

Trump to win the presidency despite getting fewer votes, so Republicans are all for it.


Fewer votes than someone else running.

Not fewer than 50%

Bill Clinton never lost a popular vote.

If you want to live in a National system, perhaps.

I like our Federal system, and the EC is an integral component of that system.

Ok.

That’s happened 18 times.

Did anyone ever finish with more popular votes than him?

The electoral college is like participation trophies counting for something.

Oh no one wants to live in your state?

Don’t be sad you can have 3x as many votes as you deserve.

Wouldn’t want you feeling less important that millions more people.

The irony is that it’s retards like you and liberal shitholes that benefit most from the electoral college. The last 18 months are proof of this.

honestly, would you be okay if states were allowed to dissolve and then you can do away with the EC?

NO state joined the union to be a part of a nationalized democracy.

It’s terrifying that people like you don’t even have a basic understanding of our election system yet wanna be the loudest voice in the room.

Thanks for getting us where we are today, a-hole.

Lol. What a dumb argument. All those ghetto and overpriced apartment dwellers in big cities too stupid to improve their lives by moving are not people to be impressed by.

Having more idiots isn't a virtue and doesn't give you the right to dictate policy for people that share no common beliefs. Letting criminals run wild may work for shitholes like L.A. and Portland, but it doesn't work in small town America. There's a reason we are a collection of states. Obviously, the common sense required to understand how this country was founded in order to support the best government for each community is not something you possess.

If everything is supposed to be just thrown out the window and you don’t like the EC then you trust the states then correct?

How about since lines are already drawn for counties and parishes then just use them. In national elections it would be like 4000-500 in favor of republicans. Froman you ok with that?

Of course you aren’t cause you’re an idiot that doesn’t understand we are a representative republic not a fricking democracy.

Nothing to see here is a new argument from the people that spent four years telling us they definitely want to abolish the electoral college and that rebutting their childish arguments is racist hate speech and anti-democratic.

You can abolish the Electoral College, if states are allowed to form their own country because those states never would have entered into the union, if they knew NYC, Los Angeles, and Chicago would control all the decisions


You're wasting energy trying to explain what states actually are to people like Froman. They believe that the states were created by the federal government to be sub-units of federal power. They don't even have the slightest understanding of the word "state." To them it's just a synonym for "province." Because of this, they'll never be able to grasp the concept of a limited federal government.

It requires two thirds of both houses and 38 states to abolish the EC. There’s nothing to see here.

Did tucker actually explain how the Dems "think" they would accomplish this via dog and pony show? And especially in time for Novembers elections.

The only reason Republicans get fewer votes is because Democrats spread illegal votes from illegal immigrants all over the country but more so in California. Are you really pretending to not know why they insist on keeping our borders unsecured? The EC is the only thing keeping that aspect of it honest.

Doesn't that get tiresome, having to pretend you don't know common sense things just to avoid having to admit how openly corrupt your party is?

The problem is you see everything for how you want it to benefit the Democrat party which is the opposite of what the founders were doing. They were coming up with a system that benefited the people, not a political party. But I am sure you know better than them.
