re: #278 Sir John Barron
They also make the distinction in defense of the electoral college, now that GOP presidential candidates are routinely losing the popular vote in presidential elections. But the moment a GOP candidate wins the popular vote and loses the EC, let’s see how principled their defense of the EC, and their preference for a republic over a democracy, is.
If it weren’t for Karl Rove’s ratfuckery in Ohio, that would have happened in 2004 and the EC would be gone by now.
