First step, grant amnesty to all illegals. Second step, open up the boarders. Third step eliminate the electoral college. They won't need Dominion or Ruby Freeman in 2024, they'll have an extra 20 million voters and the popular vote will win.

Can someone more eloquent than me explain why doing way with EC is a terrible idea for when they say “the candidate who gets the most votes should win!”

You live in a row of 10 townhouses. You all go in on common expenses like lawn maintenance and roof repairs etc.

EC = each house gets a vote and if the lawn maintenance company sucks balls and is a ripoff, 6 houses vote to fire them and you then vote in a better company and have nice lawns for a good price.

Popular vote = the house at one end (lets call it California for fun) takes in 10 homeless people off the street, and the house at the other end (let's call it NY) takes in 8 homeless people. With their 18 new people they alone can now swing any vote. The shitty lawn care company (that happens to be owned by California's owner's cousin) gets to keep working and charging double and doing a shit job.

The federal government already has way too much power. Taking away the EC would basically end America as it was originally established.

We already know that the vast majority of the country voted for Trump, and that democrats made-up their numbers. If we get rid of EC and decide elections based on popular vote, then Trump will win by a mile every time. Mo matter how many "homeless people" CA/NY/etc take in off the street, Trump will always win the popular vote by a landslide.

Getting rid of EC is a surefire way to guarantee all future wins belong to us. The vast majority of USA has always supported Trump, and always will.

Doesn't matter. The EC is core to how America is structured. It is not just about elections. And even still, letting states take in millions of homeless and illegal aliens just so they can choose the President is beyond stupid.

The problem is they will continue to fake their numbers.

Because the EC grants more power to smaller states. If we didn’t have one then you’d only have to campaign in large cities to win. The needs of NYC and Wyoming are completely different

No EC literally means NY, Chicago, and LA choose the President and make the rules for Wyoming, Montana and other states they’ve never been to and don’t understand. Dems pack those cities with illegal immigrants from the 3rd world that vote for anybody who gives them free stuff and Americans are robbed of their homeland, their values, and their vote forever.
