This blog previously linked to J. Christian Adams’ "How To
Steal and Election" – click here. And here's a headline today on cleveland.com:
Ohio’s electoral votes for president
would go to national popular vote winner
under proposed
constitutional amendment
From Jeremy Petzer's report:
A proposed Ohio constitutional amendment to award the state’s
presidential electoral votes to the winner of the national popular vote has
cleared an initial hurdle toward making the statewide ballot this November.
. . .
So far, 11 states holding a combined 181 electoral votes have signed the
compact. However, the compact doesn’t become binding until it’s joined by
states representing at least 270 electoral votes (the minimum needed to win the
presidency).
This is
scary. Because the Democrat effort to essentially abolish the
Electoral College in favor of the National Popular Vote initiative is gaining
traction, any number of articles and essays have been popping up on
conservative website. Here’s one from a week or so ago on American Thinker.
The latest states to succumb to this misguided attempt to destroy the Electoral College are Delaware and Colorado. If this issue gets enough signatures to get onto the Ohio ballot, Cleveland Tea Party will be sending out Action Alerts so we can let our representatives in Columbus know what we think.
