Flip the demographics of each state and tell me you are OK with the popular vote.

There is a reason for the electoral college.

Why does “state” demographics matter in a national presidential election?

Is a Republican in CA voting for a different Trump than a Republican in Oklahoma?

I have never seen such as crassly cowardly move as that by Perdue. He deserves to lose for being such a coward.

States are represented by the senators. Senators are selected via popular vote.

If NC is called for Biden on Tuesday he’s won the election. If he wins NC then he definitely wins WI, MI, and PA.

Do you need to go back and read the first post in our conversation again so you know which votes it is we are talking about?

Lose the consent of the governed. By design.

We, the people.

Your choice.

We do have the consent of the governed… for the way things are now.

What you don’t have is enough consent to change them to the way you want things to be.

:cry:

Could be. We’ll see how long that lasts.

We do know that tyranny of the minority will not long be acceptable.

So, as I say, Your choice and good luck.
