It would "reduce" the impact of the uneven handedness of the electoral coll ege, not eliminate it. But it does nothing to deal with the truly scary pr ospects of the election ending up in the hands of congress. With the way t he parties currently are willing to tear this country apart to advance thei r own interests there would be nothing at all reasonable or fair about Cong ress being involved in any way with the election.
There is no reason why the electoral college is needed. It is an anachroni sm that has long since outlasted its purpose. TIME TO GO!
You mean weak enough to not have stopped Trump in the first election? We have fixed that problem.
Yes.
My definition of a democracy is operational:
A country is democratic if the people can dismiss and replace the curent government without needing to wage war.

I believe that can happen in the USA. It usually takes 4 years, but there are shortcuts.
The Democrats did try to impeach Donald Trump, but the senate Republicans didn't even bother to look at the evidence - Trump was clearly guilty, but he was their crook, so they ignored it.
It is possible the Senate Republicans didn't look at the evidence because they didn't want to. But they have plausible deniability in saying they simply did not believe it was an impeachable offense.
I suppose that while it would seem the courts would be a more fair place to make this sort of decision without politics (I did say "would seem"), the numbers of people involved in such an important decision is just too small. Nine is not enough.
See where this is going??? Subtle, no?

Democracy in the modern sense means that the people get to vote for their l eaders as opposed to states like China where they have no say. Obviously, w e couldn't have a national vote to approve a name change for a post office.
re are shortcuts.
didn't even bother to look at the evidence -
Hey SL0W MAN, how many times can you be wrong in a single day? The Dims DID impeach Trump, AND he was found not guilty following a trial in the Senate . The whole Senate sat thru DAYS of testimony and the Republicans considere d each and EVERY piece of it. There was, simply, NOTHING there to convict t he President on. There is now, however, PLENTY of evidence to convict a Pre sident Biden.

That Bitrex is off his meds, as usual.
Attempted to fix it by threatening violence, which might succeed. When the KKK was the military arm of the Democratic party they succeeded in delaying the outcome of the Civil War by 100 years. Now that Code Blue, Antifa, and BLM are your military arm they can at least delay the outcome of elections.
You are funny. So, so funny. If you want to make Antifa an "arm" of the Democratic party, does that mean the mem involved in the plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer and the Wolverine Watchmen are part of the Republican party?
Silly boy.
They've never been used as an arm of the Republican party. The Democratic party did use the KKK and they do use Antifa.
Capricious, callous, shallow boy.
You have no basis for saying that. NONE Clearly you like to make up your facts like Sillyanne Conway. Antifa is not even an organization and has no identifiable members or leaders. It's more of a flash mob.
Still silly boy. Silly, silly, oh so silly boy.
Can't even get facts straight. I guess your mind has been warped by your h ate of the left. So now you must hate me since I discuss the facts rather than spewing misinformation. I'm not rabid left. I just want fair handedn ess and equality. We can debate exactly what that means, but when you make baseless accusations it becomes hard to find anything we can discuss.
I won't argue about something that happened 150 years ago as it is very irr elevant. But don't make up stuff and try to pass it off as fact.
Silly boy.
happy voting? some one stole my vote.
Never got a ballot.
Auditor never responded to query.
Fraud anyway: how in the hell can they state the result on the first, when voting is supposed to continue until the seventh?

Who is "they"? That's the news folks, not the ballot offices.
The official sources give the info they have, but they won't have a final c ount until they have a final count. How many places is the voting close en ough that it makes sense to dispute the result? Maybe Nevada once the dust has settled there since the delta is only 8,000 votes. Trump will only ne ed 1 electoral vote to tie it, so maybe the Nebraska second district? I ca n't find info on how close that is. The delta in MI is over 60,000, so may be not easily challenged. But WI is presently only 20,500 apart, still a l ot of ballots found in the back room.
I don't know how anyone would muck with an election these days. I think th ere is a LOT of openness so it would be very hard for fraud like Trump desc ribed. Just ain't happening on any sort of the scale required to flip 8,00
0 or 20,000 or 60,000 votes.
Camacho isn't running for office right yet, so the current election is not entertaining that much.
OTOH, the current predictions clearly indicate that havoc will start here, as the ruling party seems not to have even a sketchy plan B. Fort Trump, mharharhar...
Interesting times, indeed.

Some kind of backup plan:
I am afraid not; the gov guys are no geniuses. Neither is "contingency" a word I would associate with them. Luckily, I have a lot of popcorn and am ready for watching the panic in #LaughingMexican mode.

rrelevant. But don't make up stuff and try to pass it off as fact.
Believe me, if the KKK were Republicans we WOULD be hearing about it. They ARE a part of the Democratic Party history, so DEAL with it. AT LEAST apolo gize for it.
ANTIFA is not "unorganized" - they are decentralized, which is not the same . When you have pallet loads of bricks delivered to riot sites, that clearl y shows organization.
Merchants who have boarded up their stores have stenciled "Black Lives Matt er" on the plywood. That sure tells me who they think the rioters will be, and they sure as hell won't be the Tea Party.
