Nothing, but that’d be a good thing. The founders never intended on the POTUS being elected by the general public. They wanted him elected by a sample of Americans plucked from across the fields and countrysides of the nation. That pretty quickly failed as State Legislatures balked and decided to hold “elections” and gave control of nominations to the parties... and that’s how we got stuck with a two-party system.
Well, the founders left a fallback Plan B which is one of those fallbacks that’s probably better than the Plan A.... The States vote. The VP can throw out envelopes, but he can’t add votes to push someone over 270. All he can do is push it to congress.
Well... a State-by-State vote is good. Its better than we’re doing now. Also better than trusting a “random” group of Americans who’d easily be corrupted and targeted and god knows what else.
Well, they’d have to win the presidency and it should be a long time before Democrats can run the table on a majority of the several states. Democrats could very well never win the Presidency ever again.
