Democrats, liberals, progressives, socialists and all other left-leaners are harping about the unfairness of the Electoral College. Oh, how unfair to have the President selected by a few votes in small states and not by a popular vote. Notice how they don’t want a majority of 50% or more. No, that will never do. In 1992 … Read more
The Progressive / Democrat whiney losers are blaming everything, except for their actual ideology, for their complete annihilation on the national stage (as well as most of the States). Chief among their faux outrage is that part of the Constitution that rides herd on making sure that small States are treated as well as big … Read more
It’s odd how for some it falls so far out of favor. I wonder why. Oh yea, RAAAAAAAACCCIIIISSSTTT!!!!!
The Electoral College was great with pre-election predictions like this… You can’t get much further to the left than MorOn.org. They backed Bernie Sanders. They lamented the hijinks and backroom fixers that denied their candidate of choice for the Democrat Party nomination. But, in the end, they organized for Clinton. They pounded the pre-election pavement for … Read more
The electoral college. A brilliant construction designed to protect the little guy from the dangers of direct democracy’s mob-rule complexions…except for when the wrong candidate wins. (A discussion brought to you courtesy of whining Democrats on Facebook.) And for the record, having seen Democrats elected President through the electoral college on a number of occasions, … Read more
Prager University has released two short videos to help you grasp the brilliance of the electoral college. Wait, I know. You already knew this stuff. But how good are you are explaining it? And how handy would it be to have a quick resource to share for those who are still struggling? Here you go.
Democrat Charles Weed has something more important for New Hampshire than that “focus on the jobs and the economy” narrative they ran on. It’s called HB 148, and it would take New Hampshire’s votes for president and make them completely meaningless. HB148 abandons our ability to apportion our state electors for president and lumps our … Read more
Maine just became the 17th state in the nation to sign onto an electoral compact to reward the national popular vote leader, leaving Maine, New Hampshire and many other smaller states at the mercy (or lack thereof) of big blue states like California and New York.
For our friends on the left, attitudes toward race have apparently come full circle. It wasn’t that long ago, less than a decade perhaps, that the mere suggestion of a major corporation openly discriminating against prospective candidates for scholarships and fellowships based on their race would have been denounced from every angle of the political … Read more
Donald Trump Jr.’s decided to put together his prediction as to how the Electoral College Map will look after the results are in!
We’ve got more stories about the Electoral College versus the National Popular Vote (NPV) movement than you can “shake a stick at.” (Or, “at which you can shake a stick” for the Grammar Nazis.) NPV would erase NH and make it meaningless. HB 1531 attempts to prevent that.
During Hillary’s failed presidential campaign the Democrat National Party, of which New Hampshire Democrat Ray Buckley is a Vice Chair, abandoned white working class voters. Recently, New Hampshire State Party Chairman Ray Buckley labeled rural and unregistered voters as white supremacists. I presume this means that he can not allow any of his candidates to pursue … Read more
Two Professors from the University of Colorado have a model for determining who will win the White House. They’ve been right every year since 1980. In 2012 they predict that Mitt Romney will win 320 Electoral votes to Barack Obama’s 218. Romney, it concluded, will win every state currently considered by pollsters to be a … Read more
I’ve never understood the Republican-conservative, Libertarian, Right-Wing-in General, love affair with the idea of a balanced budget amendment. And it is not just my fear of letting the same modern Americans who think doing away with the electoral college is a good idea have a whack at the US Constitution. It’s actually much simpler than that.
The Polling Industry has started to go into fourth gear as Nov 5th is fast approaching. Some want good results. Others, mostly commissioned by the Mainstream Media, are in fealty to the totalitarian Democrat Party (really, Biden is as sharp as a tack, you say?).
Progressives’ only desire (it seems) is to control as many people and things as they possibly can, so this topic gives them heartburn (“How DARE you to defy us!!!”).
Julie Smith wrote on Sunday a retrospective on Jeb Bradley’s career in the New Hampshire Senate — essentially, a place where “good House bills go to die.” It’s also a place where legislators go to retire. (So too Digital Equipment Corporation in its latter years.) Boston’s Howie Carr often quips that anyone who has been … Read more
It is time, once again, to see which of the following seven comments and their commenter will accumulate enough votes to be this week’s comment of the week winner.
I have written on this subject on numerous occasions and have yet to find a valid answer to the question many of us ponder. Why do people migrate from a Blue state like New York, California, or Massachusetts to Red or Purple states like New Hampshire, Tennessee, or Florida? The obvious answer would be financial … Read more
