Electoral College: How to Change Blue States to Red



Senator Chuck E. Schumer: Super Genius let the cat out of the bag.  He wants to rig elections as a means to deny tea party candidates a chair at the political table.  Of course, he and his subversives need States’ participation.  I doubt state and county wide Republican Party members would be foolish enough to entertain the machinations of a New York thug.  But, we should never underestimate the Washington D.C. GOP establishment.

The simple fact is, the Constitution allows the States to prescribe the time, manner and place of holding elections; however, Congress can pass laws or regulations altering them.  It would have to be a complete D.C. power grab.  And as we’ve witnessed, they’re capable of doing it.

There is a way republicans in a Blue State can constitutionally alter the means by which we elect a president.  States like Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, and Florida have a republican governor and legislature.  They, instead of granting a winner- take- all Electoral College vote system, could divide electors up according to congressional districts.

Had all States used this strategy, Mitt Romney would have won 52% of the congressional districts.  Instead, Obama cleaned up.  Here are some maps depicting this contrast.









This is one dirty little secret Democrats don’t want anyone to know about.  However, electing a president still doesn’t address the runaway bureaucracies that rule this country.
