Comments by "Jock Young" (@jockyoung4491) on "Ex-adviser explains why McConnell is supporting electoral reform bill" video.
@vitalsigns2679 Of course not. States don't vote; people do getting rid of the electoral college is the only wat to insure that everyone DOES have a say.

@vitalsigns2679 States do not have equal say so you are wrong before you start. The founding fathers wanted smaller states to have disproportionate say, because that was part of the "Great Compromise". Smaller states have more electoral votes per capita. I think every person in America should have an EQUAL say in choosing a president. Why don't you?

@WinningThisOne All states have both cities and rural areas. I see what you are saying but it sounds pretty arbitrary. What if some day the rural areas were the ones voting against you? Would you feel the same? One person one vote is the only clean way to do it.

We shouldn't even have to write a bill that says we should follow the Constitution. Everything was working fine before Trump broke it.

@frankernest3712 That's why they only eliminate on at a time. Then they go back and recalculate. So one of the Rs would go to the next round with the Democrat. That's why it is sometimes called "instant Runoff"

The federal government can't do that

The House version was, but the Republicans in the Senate are forcing the bill to be weakened, as usual.

@johnbrattan9341 You don't think people should vote?

Yes, but that is why they have to make the system "Trump-proof"
