    The founders obviously saw one or two large cities determining the vote. Can't have that.

    The 2020 presidential election will likely boil down to about 200,000 voters in three states. Whomever wins at least two out of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan likely wins the election. How is the electoral college not an example of a few states holding the rest of the country hostage?
    True. And trump will lose the popular vote again by 3 million votes minimum.
    True. With the Dems courting prisoners, welfare recipients, illegals and High School students votes, How can they lose????

    Afterall these people are the brain trust of our country!!!!

    I’m refinancing my home mortgage again this week Cuog. Trump’s trade wars have deflated capital markets and significantly reduced interest rates as investors flee to safety in US treasuries. Still claim mortgage refinance is a bad move because tax law caps combined SLT and home mortgage interest itemized deductions at $10k?

    I'm refi-ing next week. No PMI from the get go. Only way my value is going to eat it is if we are all dead in 12 years.

    The systems has worked for over 200 years and as soon as you lose an election you no longer like the system.

    I am so tired of their incessant infantile whining when they lose. I have met more mature 3 year olds than what the country is seeing with democrats.

    Anyways, yeah, what could go wrong if we let the top 10 or so metropolitan areas decide all of federal policy moving forward?

    I'm sure no president would resort to pork barrel type spending on urban infrastructure and welfare to buy votes at the expense of the rest of the nation. JFC millenials are fucking indoctrinated.

    You assume the other states are static which they aren't
    I said likely - not certain. You could still boil it down to 6-7 states if you want to expand beyond the three I mentioned. How is that not a few states holding the nation hostage via the EC something sled argued shouldn't happen in an election?
    Those states aren't holding the nation hostage, they are in play and could go either way. Your way would allow New York and California and Illinois and a handful of other large population liberal states to hold the entire country hostage. It would also create a system much more susceptible to fraud.
    A single voter in LA or NYC has the same power as a single voter in Cheyenne, Wyoming or Tulsa, Oklahoma in a popular vote election. Under the EC none of those votes really matter. Every other election I have seen or participated in whether it's school counsel, senate, mayor etc etc means whomever gets the most votes wins. For some reason president is the only elected office in this country that is elected in a different manner.

    I actually don't want us to scrap the EC but would to see us go to a proportional system or voting by CDs like in Nebraska and Maine. Then you might actually see candidates campaigning in places like California, Illinois, New York, Alabama, Louisiana etc etc whereby those states currently never see a presidential candidate.
    You should stop writing before you embarrass yourself.

    Oops. Too late.

    Such a stupid lazy rebutal. The idea that a popular vote election would be decided by California, Texas and Florida is laughable.

    Yeap, totally FS to think that you could split politics down by population density and have a stark divide between urban and non-urban centers.

    And you just know that the 1st time a Rat President win election through the EC but loses the popular vote they'll have no problem with the EC. They have no integrity. It's all just about raw political power with them.
