Hillary Clinton, Electoral College Elector

Journal by DeathMonkey

Good news everybody!

Hillary Clinton will be an Electoral College Elector for NY

Aren't you glad to know that your votes don't actually count and that Hillary Clinton is one of mere 538 people in the United States whose vote actually does count?

    Yeah, I think the democratic party's lease on that argument ran out sometime before WWII when FDR wanted to pack a court.

    I mean, he didn't get to do it, but he gave it the ol' college try.

    Yes, the magic immutable number is NINE. NINE shall there be and always shall there be exactly NINE!

    Unless Obama.... then eight is cool.

      That doesn't really comport with the history of the court-packing argument.

      But, y'know, whatever. Go change the court's makeup. Nobody could possibly see that as a desperate power grab. What could possibly go wrong?
