Dems demand popular election of the President

Eric Holder Says The Electoral College Must Be Abolished

The duo later discussed why, despite President-elect Donald Trump’s claims throughout his campaign that the election was rigged against him, the electoral college system actually meant the opposite. 

This is a progressive agenda item whose time will never come.

Holder is far from the only Dem to urge this.

But too many interests will make the cumbrous Article V process fail, and this is something the most activist, liberal Supreme Court in history would not dare to do on its own hook with some ludicrous appeal to our "living Constitution".

People have tried several times to get rid of the EC and the same forces always kill the effort.

For that matter, too many Democrats even now defend the EC and oppose abolition.

Some even side with George Will and other Republicans in wanting to abolish popular election of senators through repeal of the 17th Amendment.
