On The Electoral College

The "Electoral College" and the granting of equal numbers of Senators to every State was put into place by the patriotic Founders of our Republic to keep the large States [eg New York, Virginia] of that time from legislatively crushing small states [eg Delaware (A Slave-State), New Jersey] in setting Federal laws and to put aside the smaller State's in electing our President.

There are even some who are vomiting out the lie asserting that those measures were based on the compromises that continued the then status of slavery in that new Republic.

In today's USA the abolition of the ElectorIal College would allow California, Illinois, New York and any two other, very populous States to inflict the above-described "tyranny of the majority".

Today's New York and California offer excellent examples of why the Electoral College must not be abolishes as they:
1. Both have enacted grossly unconstitutional laws aimed at taking away such modern and effective firearms (And against "bearing them") as reduce the ability of the People to immediately-and-effectively defend themselves against common thugs, those waging Jihad in the USA, tyrannical politicians and other criminals;
2. Both have grossly failed to suppress the attacks on free-speech in their public universities/colleges by such Fascist thugs as AntiFa, the Berkeley mobs and schools' presidents and their co-actors; And,
3. Both (And like Illinois) have exceeded even our Federal government in, to satisfy the "mob", in executing a suicidal disregard for spending within their means.

ALTHOUGH I AM NOT A "CONSTITUTIONAL ATTORNEY/EXPERT" I MUST WONDER IF THOSE STATES TYING THEIR ELECTOR'S VOTES TO THE NATIONAL "POPULAR VOTE" ARE IN DANGER OF SUCH CHALLENGES AS WOULD DISALLOW THE VOTES OF THEIR CITIZENS IN SELECTING POTUS. WHY? BECAUSE THE PRESENT "ELECTORIAL COLLEGE" IS FIRMLY ESTABLISHED UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF OUR REPUBLIC'S CONSTITUTION.
