Showing Original Post only (View all)Why are there no Dems pushing to get rid of the electorial college? [View all]
If I am missing some bill or stance on the Dems part, I would be happy for DU to bring me up to the latest.
I hear everyday how voters are to blame for our past loss. But in light of the majority of voters voting for us, why do comments still push this idea.
Please do not ridicule my lack of knowledge.. Thanks.

OP
Most likely because they are in the minority and the majority brings bills to the floor.

As amazing as this seems, at this point it would be EASIER to take back the House and Senate
