As if the people in each state vote in lockstep with each other.I said nothing of the sort! I said that the bigger states like The Socialist Republic of California, NY, and Florida could in reality elect the President just on their own. That the founding fathers of the American constitution saw the problem and tried to fix it by allocating some smaller states with enough clout to also have a say in the process.
The Avalon Project : Federalist No 68
Where does it state:
- That the EC shall be a partisan rubber-stamp body?
- That the EC shall be elected in winner-take-all fashion?
- That states may choose either all statewide or else two statewide and the rest by House district?
- That only a few states being contested is a legitimate possibility?
