The Democratic Party is Busy Stacking the Deck for 2016

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. 
So far, nine states and the District of Columbia -- casting 136 electoral votes -- have joined moving half way to the 270 needed to put the compact into effect. The ratifying states are: Maryland,
New Jersey, Illinois, Hawaii, Washington, Massachusetts, DC, Vermont, California, and Rhode Island.
Both houses in New York have passed it and its on Governor Cuomo’s desk. 
And, it has already passed one house in: Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, and Oregon. These states, plus New York represent 107 votes. Combined with the others they are up to 242 votes . They need 270.
Who is pushing this? 
All of those ratifying voted for Obama as did eight of the 10 one-house states. 
The Movement is funded, in part, by the Center for Voting and Democracy, a George Soros-funded election group.

  1. Wouldn't that law be unconstitutional ?

  2. I hope people realize anything funded by Soros is bad for the country. I have another comment. Why do people insist on calling it the "Democratic" party. It's not. It's the Democrat party.
