Time to change the e*******l college (Page 3): Can the Supreme Court stop the various states from doing this or are we hog tied and can't do anything to stop them from doing this?

I am not sure, but I believe that a certain number of states have to sign on before any of them can do this.

The E*******l College is established in the Constitution, but it leaves the manner of allocation of the e*******l v**es to the individual states. It is possible that the SCOTUS could rule that apportioning the v**es contrary to the v**e within the state is unconstitutional. The best way would be to pass an amendment to allocate the v**es, preferably in the manner used by Nebraska and Maine as I believe that is the manner most in keeping with the intent of the founding fathers.

Currently changing the e*******l college at all will just reduce the impact of citizens on the se******n of the President. Until we stop the v***r f***d, any change is just throwing the v**e even more to c***ters.

Gotta lot of red states with some pretty hokey old systems and ridiculous count rules, and no ability to recount. E******n f***d and suppression is far more of a problem than "v**er" fraud.

As I understand it, the e*******l College came about as a result of s***ery which it is a thing of the past. E******ns in all western democracies, except here, have functioned well without e*******l college for many many years. One citizen one v**e. He who gets the most v**es wins. What's wrong with that? Only then can you say the will of the people has spoken.

Yep, and then there is California.

This sounds like a good idea to me. The e*******l college should reflect the popular v**e, while providing a check on e******n irregularities.

Unlike Hillary the Harpy, they also have standards.

A result of s***ery? Really? Here we go with revisionist history again. The e*******l college was established with one main goal in mind: To keep like-minded (sometimes i***ts) from gathering in populous areas (see New England & California) and forcing their collective wills on the rest of the nation. Name ONE Western nation that's doing better than the U.S.. Just one. Go ahead and set it up so I can easily knock it down!

Yep, and now we have that nitwit Nancy Pelosi advocating for 16 year olds the right to v**e. Dimocrats are trying every trick in the book to increase their v**er base. Personally I think you should be the same age to v**e, as buying a gun! After all, according to libs it's all about responsibility.
