SO how does TRUMP win the ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTE? | |
DuckNCover User ID: 73281568 United States 10/28/2016 12:56 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The problem with the Electoral College is that its representatives are based upon population and population centers. A State could be almost entirely Red, but the population centers/cities vote Blue and the State turns Blue.... Quoting: DuckNCover That is very bad.... A better system would be to have the population vote as they do now. Then have the majority of votes in each County have a vote of 1. That 1 vote is either for Democrat or Republican. Then all the Counties, in that State, would be tallied for a total vote for Democrat or Republican. Then only 1 representative would be selected, from each State, to cast their popular vote in the Electoral College.... What a joke, that sysytem is fucked and not democratic. It's not suppose to be Democratic. It's a republic. If it we were Democratic, we'd be Greece.... |

Unfortunately, they have guaranteed Clinton a victory. The will lie and cheat to win. The Wikileaks and O'Keefe proves it. With the overwhelming evidence of corruption the bulk of people still can't see the truth. Don't believe me? Spend a day watching mainstream TV, especially entertainment shows. It is so pro-Hillary you will be sick. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70731876 Can kiss my ass...the people make the choice...the ECV is a control opposition. Which is why Trump may lose..... So every race the electoral college votes are rigged in the favor of Democrats. If other Republicans like Bush, can win, you dont think trump[ can? Trump is way more popular and exciting than Bush or his father. States flip. simple, Independents will come out and flip Blue to red, so there you go, simple The electors ultimately answer to the globalists. Then whatever puppet needed at the time becomes president. And they definitely don't need Trump to throw a wrench into the machine. |

The government is a republic in that we elect representatives to vote on our behalf, not in that we deny the voting public its voice. |

The government is a republic in that we elect representatives to vote on our behalf, not in that we deny the voting public its voice. I understand and agree about majority rule. There would be no violation of citizens voting rights. They could vote for any party and whoever wins in that county would be a vote for that individual casted by a representative of that county. The voting public would not be denied a voice. They have every right to vote.... Its just not right that a majority of people in a city could swing an election for an entire state. It would be more fair if each county would swing towards a certain candidate and vote. Then you could say that the majority of people and the majority people living in various counties voted a certain way towards one candidate.... The same fallacy is with the Electoral Votes. It all goes by population per state on how many electoral votes a State gets. There are 50 States in the Union. A much fairer way would be to have a candidate win 26 States to win a Presidential Election. |

(1) Blacks will not to show up to vote for Hillary like they did for Barry. (2) The polls are "over sampled" (Dem term) to poll more dems, less Reps, and a lot less Indys. (3) Indys will go to Trump, by a wide margin, and they outnumber Dems or Reps (4) Primaries showed that a record number of Reps came out to vote, and they will be even stronger due to all the Dem criminal actions that have been exposed since. Dems had lower turnout than recent elections, and only a few crazy feminazi types will be enthusiastic due to the lies about Trump, but most of the Dems are not interested. Even THEY think she is "untrustworthy." Trump train will roll, come election day. |

It has nothing to do with represenatives. You can have a republic even with a direct vote of the populace. The difference between a democracy and a republic is that in a democracy, the majority rules, no matter what (a lynch mob is a democracy), but in a republic, the majoriy rules ONLY if they do not violate the fundamental rights of the minority (a lynch mob is NOT valid in a republic). The fundamental rights are enshrined in the Constitution, especially the 9th Amendment. Majority does NOT rule if they majority is attempting to violate the rights of the minority. That's why "voting rights" have changed over time. Voting is ONLY a constitutional right, not a fundamental right. The vote is a fiction based on the fiction of government itself, whereas a fundamental right is one that existed BEFORE government existed. The Electoral College exists BECAUSE population centers (and large, populous ststes) should NOT be able to run roughshod over everyone else. |
