    All they can which a few other states have done is to have its electors vote up the nationwide popular vote winner. This, of course disenfranchises Maine's voters. Think about what happens when Trump wins the popular vote in 2020. He gets those electoral votes even if Mainers vote otherwise.
    Short sighted and stupid.

    I wouldn't feel good about the Democratic Party routinely losing the national vote, but still being given control of the federal government.

    There are grown adults, GenXers, today who only have a memory of Republicans winning the national vote one single time in their lives.
    You are so stupid, you mean enough people in two states, therefore screwing the rest of us, by putting us under the rule of welfare takers.

    Irrelevant. New York didn't do what you claimed it did.

    Still, it's fun to watch you run from your own posts.

    Of course you are, but you're running like the whore you are from your claim about New York.

    Thanks for another easy win.

    One American, One Vote.
    A Californian’s vote should count as equally as a Nebraskan’s vote.

    Anyone can play that geography game. 70,000 people in only three medium-sized states decided for the rest of us that a dunce who got blown out in the popular vote should be allowed to be president.

    A lot of small, rural red states have more cows and corn fields than people.
    Cows and corn fields do not vote, and they are not entitled to representation.

    The small, rural, conservative states are already given vastly disproportionate power and advantage by over-representation in the U.S. Senate and by district gerrymandering in the House.

    There is no plausible need that tiny, rural states need to also be given a disproportionate advantage in presidential elections. They are given more than enough disproportionate power and representation as it is.
