Connecticut has decided NY & California should elect our president

If Kerry and H Clinton had won "but lost" it would be "this is how the system works, deal with it."

I wonder if INGOs attitude would be different also?

We need to make it law In every state that you dip your finger in the ink to vote. Besides showing ID.
We need to get the dead off the voter lists. We need to stop multiple voting. Democrats are usually against playing fair and they always stomp their feet and get their way. Republicans nation wide need to stop being nice. Treat Democrat politicians like the criminal scum bags they are.

They're only doing this because Bush2 and Trump won "but lost".

If Kerry and H Clinton had won "but lost" it would be "this is how the system works, deal with it."

It would've worked for me because the Electoral College is the only way to give EVERY state proportional representation in choosing the President.

That's an interesting statement to make... I don't think it's impossible to find it (at least in some cases, and could be a bit easier to find if it required as much of a process to do as our govt seems to impose on exercising other rights) ... but your argument is that if it was found, then it wouldn't be good voter fraud, does that mean it did not happen? Seems a bit circular.

I'm not speaking of individual cases. Those can be found. I specifically mentioned widespread. There's no indication that it occurs on the levels some people believe. 3 Millions fraudulent votes? That's a really difficult one to believe. And, also consider, that it it were found, then the system to prevent it, is working. Hence why, if it was found, it wouldn't be very good.

No voter fraud, hmmm. In the 2012 election, Romney got zero, as in no votes, as in with all those voters not one vote was registered for him in 59 voting places. Hard to believe the machines were honest about the buttons pushed.

In 59 Philadelphia voting divisions, Mitt Romney got zero votes - Philly

It’s instructive how the Dems are always looking for a shortcut or an angle to achieve power, rather than appealing to a majority of people in a majority of states. If their programs are so popular, why can’t they develop broad appeal?

There's little doubt in my mind that voter fraud is occurring on a massive scale. IMO three million is just the tip of the iceberg. The left and their lapdogs the national media will continue to deny, deny, deny because it is overwhelmingly to their benefit.

Yep. Just like a bunch of kids crying because they didn't get their way. I have a 5 YO that acts the same way.

Yep. You’d think they would want to settle the issue once and for all. But when it comes time to put up or shut up ... they won’t do either one

Ideas so good they have to be mandatory.

Well this effectively kills third parties too

Nah...nominating clowns like Gary Johnson is what kills third parties.

This isn't new. Nor is it limited to Connecticut.

(and as aside, have we considered that is California is split into 3 states it will have 6 senators meaning what used to be California will have 4 more electoral votes than it has now?)

Well, we're going to drag our feet on the California thing until after the magnitude 8.0. Without the LA and Frisco megapolis's it should be a much friendlier place

Not everything that stinks sinks when it hits the water...some of it will float. Just sayin'.

There is no evidence of widespread voter fraud. Technically it's impossible to prove one way or another, since it wouldn't be very good voter fraud if it were found. And even if what you propose is true, it defaults to one side being more guilty of it, than the other, which seems to be more based on bias confirmation than fact.

What states had the hardest bias in the election and also the largest number of illegal immigrants.

Seems pretty easy to figure out where the voter fraud was going on, just not easy to prove. Republicans aren't organized enough for wide spread voter fraud.

How would the proportionate assignment of electoral college votes play out? Would it be similar to popular vote? If New York upstate Republicans were represented proportionately, would it make a difference? Most of Illinois is Republican except for Chicago metro?

It seems difficult to backtest because of multiple uncertainties. Knowing electoral votes would be proportional might encourage Republican turnout in places like California, thus providing additional electoral votes for the home team

But it would likely also encourage progressives in places like Madison or Urbana and might wind up being death by a thousand cuts

Who remembers this argument from the fall of 2017?

I also like this one...
