In a system of direct popular vote, presidential candidates wouldn’t concern themselves with votes gathered outside of the major population centers. They would only concern themselves with those areas that would return the most votes for their money, time and effort expended. The obvious result of that would be that voters in rural areas would simply not be represented because they would be left out of the process. While this is only partly true now, it would be become the rule if the Electoral College were to be abolished.
It is well that all of the states elect the president, rather than his election being decided by individual urban votes. This is the United States of America. It is not the United Votes of America.
Which is a point i have been arguing with some die hard liberals over on military times forums about. Just taking CA as an example, LA (and all its suburb townships) comprises 24% of the entire population in CA JUST ITSELF.. Add in San fran (and its townships) and San diego (and its townhips), and those 3 cities on their own carry the majority of the state vote damn near…
If we got rid of the EC, politicians would ONLY CARE about those real large cities (such as those and manhattan/Chicago), and all the rest of the country is in essence ignored and disenfranchised..
BUT to whiner liberals, as long as its THEM doing the disenfranchisement, its all ok..
The image shown ma be accurate, maybe not, but it exemplifies why an electoral college is a must. What is unclear, is how the two are synchronized and justified. The Pig States shown are the freeeee States, ie Sanctuary States. They could easily change our Country from a Democracy to a Dictatorship with enabling the foreign born citizens to vote, as was done in this Election. The Progressive movement was pushing “get out the vote”, and not a single Democrat questioned it.
Did one Democrat question the comments regarding them stating “Progressive, Democratic Socialist, when they are supposed to be a Democrat! The Bern actually states he is a Socialist, Hil-lier-ly pushed the Progressive, and Obama was, at the end, pushing for illegals to vote. He (Obama) was telling them, “vote, you won’t get into trouble, immigration will not be coming to get you”. What the lier left out was that they were going “all in”, and you “illegals” were the chips. Break the law and you are on the short list, and still are, to be deported. Deportation of a criminal is the fasted exit of a “non-citizen” available to a politician. And, from reports, millions of illegals actually voted, some because they assumed they were citizens, because they were “born” here. Automatic birth citizenship applies to children born to one parent that IS a legal citizen, and when a Constitutional Supreme Court is established, it will be that way again.
HARRYTC> They would have a hard time changing our Country from a Democracy to a Dictatorship as we are a Democratic Republic.
Ya gotta love the fact that the country of Mexico was included in the electoral map… while many other actual U.S. states apparently didn’t make the cut at all. Though the map may not have intended to convey that impression, I don’t think it is too far from the truth either.
Canuckistan was also included (maybe larger gross-area of it, though percentage less — remember that Canuckistan is #2 by area irrespective of including Great Lakes territorial-waters and US is #3 if you include Great-Lakes Great Lakes territorial-waters and #4 if not) in that map…
I am wondering i that little blot on the bottom left supposed to be Alaska and Hawaii??
Intentional or not the graphic speaks volumes. Democrats, including the now deposed and HRC, have for years pushed for the elimination of the EC. The Electoral College illustrates the pure brilliance of the Founding Fathers and must stand in perpetuity.
eagle25, the MAIN reason the lousy, scheming, power-mad COMMUCRATS want to put an end to the electoral college is that it is MUCH easier to game and RIG an election that is based on popular vote, than to co-opt electors of the electoral college since EACH STATE has their OWN electors.
Hell, they could carry EVERY election just by encouraging ILLEGALS to vote, just as OBAMA tried to do in THIS election–especially when they are hellbent on allowing more and more illegals to come IN through our porous southern border.
They STILL don’t get that the economic destruction caused by invading illegals to the citizens who must SUPPORT THEM with our tax dollars is one of the MAIN reasons they lost this election!
[They STILL don’t get that the economic destruction caused by invading illegals to the citizens who must SUPPORT THEM with our tax dollars is one of the MAIN reasons they lost this election!]
Where as i DO feel they know what the economic destruction is, but just dont give a rats butt.. Cause THEIR wealth is secure in off shore accounts, gold etc..
ituser, I agree that they KNOW how destructive it is and how damaging to the economic future of American citizens, and not only do they not CARE, that is actually a PLUS for them, since their objective is to reduce us to just another Third World country in the NWO global collective.
Just shows you how brain-dead STUPID they are in their ideological fervor that it never OCCURRED to them they could lose this election over what they have done to us with this unrestricted INVASION from the southern border and in the form of HORDES of refujihadis being imported.
No, it shows just how calculatingly EVIL and soulless they are..
Hmmm…I can’t tell if Mexico is being included in the electoral college map or not. If it is not, I wonder if our next elected Democrat President will that?
A tangential thought: I wonder how many absentee ballots the US sent to Mexico this election?
I don’t think that was the intent of the cartoonist, but it just struck me as somehow being an appropriate interpretation.
As someone else pointed out, Canada is also shown, though I don’t believe we have nearly the number of Canadians attempting to sneak into the US, as we do from our neighbor to the south. Given the number of liberals who said they would leave if Trump won, it may be the other way around.
In fact, the morning after the election, I posted this spoof headline: Reports are coming in of Canadian resources being stretched to the breaking point, as they attempt to accommodate struggling American political refugees, arriving at their border by Mercedes and BMW.
According to one site i saw back last year, 43000 or so US expats live in Mexico and parts south of that (most being in beliz, some in Chille).. SO they probably all had ballots mailed to them..
The Dems were just fine with the electoral college as long as they were winning. In fact, they have a BUILT-IN advantage in the electoral college, because of their domination of population-dense urban areas in key states, that make it an uphill battle for a Republican candidate to win. And they want to throw that away, just because they thought they were winning this time, and they were wrong?
The Dem establishment and their media lapdogs were TOTALLY TONE-DEAF to the anger and disgust with “establishment” government corruption and disastrous liberal policies that was sweeping the country. They assured themselves in their liberal echo-chambers that Trump should not be taken seriously, that he could not POSSIBLY win, and that Clinton was a shoo-in. They rigged polls and slanted media coverage to send this message, and ultimately started to believe their OWN LIES–while IGNORING and looking down their elite noses at all those “rubes and rednecks” out there in “flyover country”, just as they ALWAYS do! And THIS time, the “rubes and rednecks” in “flyover country” had ENOUGH of their BS, and rose up to send them a message they STILL are not hearing, as they wring their hands and ask themselves “what went wrong?”
The ONLY thing that needs to be done to “fix” the electoral college is for the “winner take all” method of awarding any given state’s electoral votes needs to be changed. The “winner take all” method of awarding electoral votes allows candidates to make off with ENTIRE STATES simply by dominating the vote in one or two population-dense urban areas, which effectively disenfranchises the rest of the states’ voters, much to their frustration and disgust!
Electoral votes should be awarded to each candidate PROPORTIONAL to the percentage of vote that candidate got in the state. That would help to eliminate the domination of big cities in the electoral process.
Which i fully agree with teabag. Make EC Distribution of votes proportional to the # of votes someone receives in that state.. Thus looking at the map of CA to see where trump WON the # of votes in, HE should by rights have carried almost 20 of the 55 votes from the state, but cause hillary (as was guesstimated by damn near everyone) carried San fran, San diego, LA and Bakersfield, she carried the state cause THOSE 4 cities equal just over HALF THE STATE’s population damn near..
The electoral college prevents mob rule.
Which is EXACTLY why the Commucrats are always railing against the electoral college–because they are ALL about “mob rule”–just look how they are ENCOURAGING the “not my President” IDIOTS in their rioting and violence against Trumps supporters. And the media and Hollywood crowd are in such a MELT-DOWN over losing that they are openly displaying just how VILE, intolerant and downright NASTY they all are!
