I don't like what I am hearing about republican states giving all their electorate

 
votes to Trump. There are at least 11 states that are republican majority house and senate and the constitution says they can vote to allocate ALL their electoral college votes to Trump. They would throw out and votes to a democrat. Sorry to add to the worry .


First this post doesn't make much sense due to the illiteracy of this DUmmie (like most of them), but I guess this DUmmie is trying to say the state legislature would be the one to tell the electoral reps of the state how to cast the vote ... still it doesn't make any sense.

6. I don't fully understand it.
 
But, after the vote is in, each state can pose a vote of their legislature. The legislature (both senate and congressional) can vote to have ALL their electoral collage votes delegated to Trump, for that election.

Very worrisome and very republican. They said it was constitutional and last done in 1968.

in changing the will of the voters. Its political suicide.


You may want to tell that to the DUmmies who have been cheering the states that have come up with that 'pact' to cast their electoral college votes for whomever wins the popular vote NATIONALLY despite what their STATE votes choose.

8. I heard it on NPR radio. This morning.


They've asked this DUmmie the same question 3-4 times and the DUmmie gives them the same answer each time.  I don't think they read their own threads before posting.

Back in the 2016 GOP primary when I was a Cruz supporter, I was pissed when when Trump got a lot of cross-party primary votes, perhaps many by these same DUmmies, of whose votes more than likely cost Cruz delegates.

So suck it up, stutterbutts.

mysteryowl shouldn't listen to NPR and :stoner: at the same time. My wild-ass guess is that it's a highly distorted and misunderstood allusion/illusion to Texas winning in LULAC's lawsuit against Texas' winner-takes-all system of awarding all of Texas' electoral votes to whichever Presidential candidate wins Texas' popular vote.

This from the same kooks who were begging the 2016 Electoral College voters to ignore how their State voted and rather vote for Hillary.

WTF is this DUmmie talking about?  All but 2 states (I think) are winner-take-all, and have been for a very long time.  Maine and (I think) North Dakota are the only ones who potentially split their electoral vote.  Cripes!  This is why California and Texas are such prizes! 


Sorry, DUmmie, but you're too stupid to vote. Go sit in the corner.

This, from a party that has decided to gang up on one of its more successful candidates and shut him down. What they are doing to Bernie Sanders, while hilarious to watch on its own, is actually scarier from a standpoint of what happens if the Democrats EVER win the presidency and control both chambers of Congress. Keep in mind they are now talking about shutting down the rest of the primaries, and certainly the primary debates, to prevent the most gaffe-prone frontrunner in the history of the United States to add to the meme-industrial complex. (In fact, they are even talking about Biden not even debating against Trump, but for now it's just chatter.)

In short, Biden is the most manipulated Manchurian candidate in the history of the country. Pure and simple.
