Electoral Vote vs Popular Vote

[SaluteToTheHill]

Your opinion?

Should the Electoral vote be banished?

Should the Popular vote be the deciding factor?

If one wins the popular vote and the other wins the Electoral vote, should the method be challenged?

Debate this topic!

Keep the electoral vote. It ensures that candidates have to pay attention to flyover country.

US Senators and the President should never be elected via popular vote.

 

[NEO]

Yes let's give 51% of the country that pays no taxes even more power.

That's the ticket!!!

This. As a matter of population NYC could outvote Wyoming, Vermont, ND, Alaska, SD, Delaware, Montana, Rhode Island & New Hampshire by itself.

You're too smart to be such an idiot some times.

What percentage of people making 0-35k household per year do you think vote republican?

That is a huge demographic. That is also the demographic that normally has no idea how money is made, kept, or earned.

While there certainly some merit here it's not like there aren't other factors. I have little doubt there are more than a few in the S and MW that vote R for reasons other than their bank statement.

bullcrap.

Why don't we just let Mike Ditka decide?

Don't give too many facts to neocon at once or his head might explode.

(BTW if those stats don't show that racism is still prominent in America I don't know what does.)

Because they're factual statistics or because exit polling reminds you of something your crazy uncle did to you?

[NEO]

you can do a county by county run and see stats.

This has been done before between TRUT and I.

He did pull counties with left leaning that voted liberal but on a whole upper middle and above counties that are not high jewish populations or centered in areas like chicago or mass voted straight republican everytime. it is why the pop vote is bad.

 

[NEO]

You lose! Good day, sir!

Wow.

NEOCON are you ever going to post anything to support your position that the 51% of the population that doesn't pay taxes votes D, or can I stop following this thread?
