The ongoing attempt to steal presidential elections & the groups behind it
Dick Morris: Democrats Conspiring to Rig Electoral College, Law Passed in 9 States So Far
"A plan, now stealthily making its way through state legislatures with astonishing speed, would junk the Electoral College and award the presidency to the winner of the popular vote.
The plan involves an Interstate Compact where states would commit to select electors pledged to vote for the national popular vote winner regardless of how their own state voted. When enough states pass this law -- sufficient to cast the Electoral College's majority 270 votes -- it will take effect.
The Electoral College will become a vestigial anachronism."
To this progressives will rejoice. This is either because they are morons, or because they know it serves a progressive agenda.
"Essentially, it is an end run around the regular constitutional amending process. Rather than get a two-thirds majority of each house of Congress and three-quarters of the states, this proposal would take effect when a simple majority approve it.
Why are Democrats pushing this plan?
Democrats usually see a smaller percentage of their people go to the polls than Republicans do.
Under the electoral vote system, they figure why beat the drums to get a high turnout in New York City when the state will go Democrat anyway? But, if its the popular vote that matters, the big city machines can do their thing -- with devastating impact.
And think of the chances for voter fraud! Right now, the biggest cities, the ones most firmly in Democratic control (e.g. Washington DC, New York, Detroit, Chicago, San Francisco, etc.) are all solidly in blue states. Not only does this make it unnecessary to maximize turnouts there, but it also makes it unnecessary to promote double voting, fraudulent voting, and all the other tricks of the trade at which Democrats excel."
"How can we stop the Democrats from ravaging our political system? The key battles are coming up in Arkansas and North Carolina."
Here's the main group behind it, Fair Vote, formerly the Center for Voting and Democracy. Take a look at their "reforms" for yourself. It's basically a list of how to commit voter fraud, steal elections for Democrats.
Background on the typically Orwellian named Fair Vote
Democrats don't care how they achieve rule, their only interest. They'll attack on every front, from every shadow, in any way.
