Stone - you are correct. Now, these 3 Democrats are complete morons, but average representatives of the party.
Sens. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii,) Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) and Peter Welch (D-Vt.), three leading progressive Senate voices, say it’s time to “restore democracy” by allowing for the direct election of presidents through the popular vote alone.
The senators are troubled that the Electoral College has twice elected a candidate who didn’t win the popular vote in the past 19 years. In both those instances, a Republican captured the White House — George W. Bush in the 2000 election and Trump in the 2016 election.
“In an election, the person who gets the most votes should win. It’s that simple,” Schatz said. “No one’s vote should count for more based on where they live. The Electoral College is outdated and it’s undemocratic. It’s time to end it.”
Yes, the Electoral College is undemocratic for a reason - because we are a Republic. Amazing that complete morons from Hawaii and Vermont want to completely marginalize their own states. Even the idiot from Illinois is trying to marginalize his declining state as it bleeds electoral votes and population.
