House Bill 177 passed with a 51-46 vote in the Democrat-majority House after being handed off by the Privileges and Elections Committee last week. Should the Senate also approve, Virginia will officially become part of the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
“Under the compact, Virginia agrees to award its electoral votes to the presidential ticket that receives the most popular votes in all 50 states and the District of Columbia,” a bill summary states. Further:
The compact goes into effect when states cumulatively possessing a majority of the electoral votes have joined the compact. A state may withdraw from the compact; however, a withdrawal occurring within six months of the end of a President’s term shall not become effective until a President or Vice President has qualified to serve the next term.So far, 15 states, along with Washington D.C., have joined. The idea gained momentum as an answer to President Donald Trump’s electoral college victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016, despite her approximately three million popular vote lead.

ReplyDeleteGET IT TO THE SUPREME COURT.
ReplyDeleteI have voted mostly for conservative candidates all my life. My vote here in MD. has not been worth any thing since this part of MD. was re-district to be part of Montgomery Co. I hope it backfires and they feel the disappointment of helplessness.
ReplyDelete2:17 your a moron, you can go to the SC all you wish, but if they won't hear the case then what?? Moron

ReplyDeleteI TOLD YOU, YOUR VOTE DOESN'T COUNT, and not it REALLY DOESN'T COUNT!!!! Well in those 15 states now anyway!!!
But you all love being slaves for some reason... Just love it!!!
712, how so? How is it a bad thing to have the elected state officials, who are much closer to the pulse of the people, decide that their state would with the will of the nation as a whole?
ReplyDeleteThey are giving their electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote nationwide, so Virginia residents just lost their vote.
ReplyDeleteTrump WINS 2020 Regardless what they try to pull !!!
ReplyDelete@6:52
ReplyDeleteOh you didn't know? Trump didn't win the popular vote... in fact he lost with much less votes than Hillary.
The electoral college was a brilliant idea by our founders to prevent the largest states calling the shots, an VA is in the wrong side of history on this. Trump DID win the electoral college vote, and is likely to do so in 2020. The insane field of candidates the Democrats trotted out is shockingly inept at being able to challenge Trump.
Boy are those same democrats going to be pissed when Trump WINS the popular vote in a landslide in the next election. Just like Maryland, where Baltimore will swing the state to whoever the Democrat candidate is, but our electoral votes will go to Trump. See how fast they change the law again. Maryland charged our electoral college vote law after Bush won. What Virginia and Maryland did, was to take away the state citizens right to vote for and select who gets our electoral college votes. No need to vote at all. We have no voice. Our state legislators have given our electoral votes to whoever wins the popular vote in the country. Yep, no voice at all in the presidential elections, unless it matches the popular vote. Our state governments are just as corrupt as the federal government.
ReplyDeleteThe electoral college should not be eliminated. Trump will win in 2020 unless Democrats get away with massive cheating. But the electoral college guarantees that less populated states' citizens vote counts.
ReplyDeleteVa govt does NOT have the authority to change the system !!!!
