Republicans in Texas are proposing a state electoral college to chose statewide officials to overturn a popular vote victory. Delegates would chosen by each state senate district who when then chose state officials. They are likely proposing this due to the most populous counties leftward trend.
This proposal is undemocratic and unconstitutional as it would violate one man one vote and could mean a Republican always wins a statewide election. Land area shouldn’t determine who wins only the number of votes you get. It’s beyond obvious at this point Republicans hate democracy.

There's a problem with that.
In popular vote, it's not democracy, it's tyranny of the majority.

No, this is a blatant attempt to prevent any other party from getting the governorship. There is no evidence that small areas of Texas are not well represented.

As someone who lives in Washington state, I can confirm that. The most populated areas - the ones along the I-5 Corridor - tend to make really lousy decisions and the sad part is Washington state goes by popular vote, which means the most populated areas can easily dictate what the rest of the state does (even if they don't want it). It's not even fair honestly.

No, the Electoral College is what allows unpopular people that should lose elections to win them instead. This is the only reason the GOP has remained as dominate as it has been for the last forty years - to the detriment of the entire Union.

If they were trying to represent small areas better, the popular vote would be a good solution. There are like 5 democratic strongholds down here, and Republicans dominate 97% of the land area or something around that number.

Imagine taking the time to come up with this response, typing it out, and then hitting Submit, and thinking that it's a statement worth taking seriously.
I can't.
