One person One Vote! Not electoral college

In this day and age there really should just be each vote is equal. I live in California with 39 million people and it goes overwhelmingly Democratic. My vote is worth less than a vote in Wyoming or Montana. I think my vote should count as much as theirs!

Bro literally everyone could vote to get rid of the EC and it wouldn't matter. There's a reason no party entertains it
@UndeadSona I don't think you grasp how difficult it is to get enough states to ratify a constitutional amendment, particularly an amendment that would be detrimental to the red states that would be necessary to get a majority for the ratification

You seem to be either misinformed or in as much denial of reality as the "weather weapon" crowd

@BlueGreenGrey difficult? Yeah it's impossible I literally said so earlier. That doesn't change what I said. So I'm not sure what part of reality I'm denying. Perhaps the part where you think any politician is actually on your side and not just less worse than the other
@UndeadSona anyone who thinks there is no difference between, say, FDR and Hitler, is living on Mars, they aren't living in actual reality

You will get no argument from anyone living in similar large states, or those in blue states. The system was intended to assure that a population plurality didn't dominate, that was in the 18th century, it seemed a good compromise, but now it works out in the reverse. California has the same 2 senators as each of the Dakotas!

Good! 😎
The founders were brilliant.. somehow they knew every left wing wanker would end up in NY AND CALI. And didn’t want the rest of amerika to suffer under 2 highly populated areas..

What a pity

Naw. Electoral college is easier. Much easier to corrupt. Just ask Rudy.

Agreed -- elections should be won by the popular vote. Do away with the Electoral College.
You can nominate someone now without any votes. (From actual voters). 🙄

Democracy leads to comfort and then the masses start running the country. You aren't for peace,- like when people run the country. You are Great again, the wars never end.

Requires a constitutional amendment which is very unlikely. 😥
