Everyone understands you wouldn't be whining about this if Hillary had won.Apparently you don't understand me, nor what I am talking about.

I have no idea if this would have given Hillary a win in 2016. Actually it might have given Trump the win for all I know. It doesn't matter to me either way.Everyone understands you wouldn't be whining about this if Hillary had won.
That's a lie. If Hillary won, you wouldn't give two shits about the EC; you'd be too busy rounding up "irredeemables" for the ovens.I have no idea if this would have given Hillary a win in 2016. Actually it might have given Trump the win for all I know. It doesn't matter to me either way.
So you think there are enough voters in New York City and all of California to pick the president? The statistics are readily available. Why don't you do the rest of us a favor and look into how it would be possible for those two places alone to pick the president.NO.
The People will not sit by and allow NYC and CA to choose the POTUS every 4-years. That would be the end of our Republic.
Might be?You might be the most worthless poster here.
This is a dimocRAT idea exclusively. Why don't you ask the shitbags who run the party you worship?The EC is part of the Constitution. But the Constitution does not say that anyone who wins a state should get all of its EC votes. All of the liberals in Mississippi and the conservatives in California should not have their voices shut out by a system that makes their votes meaningless when all of the EC votes go to only one candidate.
A few voters in swing states should not decide the elections for the entire country. Nor should we have the election decided on razor thin margins in a Florida or Pennsylvania. The only fair way to do things is to divide the EC votes based upon the the percentage of votes each candidate gets in that state.
That way everyone's voice is equal and all votes are counted.
Trump was already making noise about Hillary winning the EC but not the popular vote...I guess you forgot. He has frequently said the EC should go away...so deal with that.That's a lie. If Hillary won, you wouldn't give two shits about the EC; you'd be too busy rounding up "irredeemables" for the ovens.
It's always a horse race. But he does seem to be the PJ's trolling SecretariatMight be?
I already did....months ago.So you think there are enough voters in New York City and all of California to pick the president? The statistics are readily available. Why don't you do the rest of us a favor and look into how it would be possible for those two places alone to pick the president.
That is still winner take all and it does even worse than the current model in my opinion by taking the voice away from the entire population of voters in that state and gives it to all the other voters in all the other states. But it does partially negate voter suppression in individual states. So in that way it's an improvement.This is a dimocRAT idea exclusively. Why don't you ask the shitbags who run the party you worship?
And talk about great timing.........Why just YESTERDAY dimocRAT's here in Virginia passed a law mandating that the ALL electoral votes go to the popular vote winner.
How come you're not enamored with the idea like the rest of your leftist brethren? ?
Agreed.That is still winner take all and it does even worse than the current model in my opinion by taking the voice away from the entire population of voters in that state and gives it to all the other voters in all the other states.
The electoral vote compact has a number of states that have committed to it. The Virginia house passed it, but not the Senate.This is a dimocRAT idea exclusively. Why don't you ask the shitbags who run the party you worship?
And talk about great timing.........Why just YESTERDAY dimocRAT's here in Virginia passed a law mandating that the ALL electoral votes go to the popular vote winner.

I will just respond to the relevant part of your post.Agreed.
It is a horrible law that shreds the constitution.
Nope.I will just respond to the relevant part of your post.
The current system shreds the Constitution.
Oh without a doubt there would be no mention of the electoral college if Hillary had won. Just a bunch of sore losers..Everyone understands you wouldn't be whining about this if Hillary had won.
If you ignore the fact that to win the popular vote by that margin she also had to win tens of millions of votes everywhere else in the country.I already did....months ago.
Hilliary won New York City and the county of Los Angeles by over 3 million votes which equals the total amount by which she won the popular vote.
Just those 2 cities alone would decide the winner of the presidency.
I’m not a Democrat and I support reforms to make the election more democratic.This is a dimocRAT idea exclusively. Why don't you ask the shitbags who run the party you worship?

I'm not ignoring that fact. That's a given.If you ignore the fact that to win the popular vote by that margin she also had to win tens of millions of votes everywhere else in the country.
We don't live in a democracy. I hope we never do.I’m not a Democrat and I support reforms to make the election more democratic.
So you believe that the proper answer to conservative in Calif and NY is sit down and STFU ?Nope.
The current system works exactly as it should.
Until leftist shitbags politicians screw it up like they're doing here in Virginia.
It's all good though. I have a feeling the dimocRAT'S here in my state won't be able to withstand the backlash heading their way.
Can't wait for November!
