One purpose of the Electoral College is to prevent a limited number of pockets of dense population from determining the outcome of presidential elections. In that sense, it is a bit similar to the US Senate, and acts to give powers to the states as opposed to treating the country as one large electorate.
Without the Electoral College, the recent election would have been decided by heavily populated cities in the states of California and New York. With that in mind, voters could expect to see candidates spend the overwhelming majority of their time in geographical areas with dense populations, leaving those with sparse populations largely ignored.
Liberals chafe at the Electoral College for the same reason they are irritated by each state getting two senators regardless of population — it gives power to the states and recognizes them as significant political entities. It’s the same as the “states’ rights” argument which militates against a powerful national government. Hence, this is not a new argument at all, but one that goes back to the founding of our nation.
That liberals hate the Electoral College is illustrated by the comments of one Supreme Court justice. More on page two.
That is bias judgement….she needs to be removed and she can be!!!!
You need to resign, you are not non bias !
She is way past he time, wish she would just go away.
YEE.OLD SEA HAG
I’m guessing she had no problem with it when Obama was elected. She’s just mad because the 3 million illegals who voted weren’t enough to defeat the rest of America. Suck it up Ginsburg. Better yet, just go away. Your time is over.
“There are some things I would like to change, one is” removing radical liberals out of the Supreme court. Are you not concerned with going to meet your Maker soon?
I would like to see you retire and get some sleep and not in session.
Well off course! All liberals want to do that especially when they lose an election. So Ginsburg wants few states to always have the upper hand in determining the outcome of presidential elections. It goes without saying that she knows that these states vote for the democrats. So our beloved impartial judge wants to control the outcome of the elections for people who share her pathetic liberal views. She could care less about giving the central states a voice in the presidential elections. Maybe she needs to take another nap.
We the people of America would like to exchange YOU Chief Justice and Air-Bag and Douche “Ginny Haha!”
maybe she shouldn’t have become a Supreme Court judge?
