Delaware House Passes Bill to Give State’s Electoral College Votes to National Popular Vote Winner

The Communists Democrats are waging war on the Electoral College as part of their efforts to erode the US Constitution and ultimately leave federal elections in the hands of the elite coasts, California and New York.

The Delaware House of Representatives recently passed a bill that would give the state’s Electoral College votes to the candidate who wins the popular vote.

The measure passed the Delaware House last week by a vote of 24-17 to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

John Carney, the Democrat Governor of Delaware has already signaled he would sign the bill once it reaches his desk.

Delaware joins the 12 other states along with the District of Columbia (3 EC votes) to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

“We’re already overlooked,” Rep. David Bentz, the sponsor of the bill said, according to WHYY “Delaware is seen as this true blue state. And if you’re a Republican voter what is your motivation to vote? Because you know at the end of the day Delaware’s three electoral votes will go to that Democrat. If you’re a Democrat maybe you’re not motivated either because you know you don’t have to.”

Opponents to the bill said the measure is simply a reaction to Democrats losing the 2016 presidential election.

On Friday, Colorado Governor Jared Polis (D) quietly signed a bill into law that would favor the popular vote over the Electoral College.

Here are the other states that have signed the the National Popular Vote into law:

The only way for this joint agreement to go into effect would be if enough states pass legislature to total the number of electoral votes to win a presidency – 270 EC votes.

Our Founding Fathers wanted to give a voice to middle America and less densely populated states so they came up with the best system to represent America, the Electoral College.

The Democrats hate middle America — they want (illegal aliens) California and the Cosmopolitan liberal elitists in New York to choose every US president going forward.

Donald Trump won the 2016 election with 304 electoral votes compared to 227 for Hillary Clinton — the media loves to brag that Hillary ‘won the popular (illegal alien) vote’ but the 2016 election showed the genius of the Electoral College because it filtered out the massive amounts of voter fraud and gave a voice to middle America.
