Abolish the electoral college?

What would happen? Republicans would never hold power again?

No, that’s ridiculous. In no world would it lead to a single party state. That’s delusional thinking.

What would actually happen is the Republican Party would become more moderate in an attempt to cultivate more voters. Then the Democrats would slowly move left instead of the constant shift to the right they’ve undergone for the last three decades.

This is the result of just a simple popular vote. Something like rank choice voting could even lead to more viable third parties. Or at least coalitions instead of just two parties.

Somehow this is opposed by those that shout the loudest about “we the people”, but they fail to realize the only word in that statement they care about is “we”.

Just remember, the world is on an endless march towards progress. God will not send judgement. It’s only us.

No justice, no peace.

There’s my political rant for the hour.
