Defending the power of our states since 2009
Author and Save Our States advisor Tara Ross was recently published in USA Today. She wrote about the how eliminating the Electoral College through the National Popular Vote interstate compact would create a nightmare:
The Commonwealth of Virginia is poised to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, an agreement already joined by 17 other states and Washington, DC, in an attempt to effectively eliminate the Electoral College. Both the state senate and state house approved the measure, and the bill is now awaiting the governor’s signature.
Electoral College opponents will celebrate, but they shouldn’t. Americans do not realize what is about to hit them if the national popular vote becomes reality.
Indeed, the situation bears an eerie resemblance to Prohibition.
