Benjamin Waddell Quote of the Day!


"The three groups that most heavily support Democratic candidates — blacks (88 percent for Clinton in 2016), Hispanics (66 percent for Clinton) and Asians (65 percent for Clinton) — now find themselves disproportionately living in densely populated states whose electoral votes are undervalued compared to those rural, less-populated states.

As Graph 2 shows, in the 2016 election, Wyoming — where 84 percent of the population is white ― had one electoral vote for every 187,875 residents. California — where 62 percent of the population are minorities ― had one electoral vote for every 677,344 residents. So if a person moved from Wyoming to California, their vote would lose nearly 66 percent of its value in presidential elections.

The Electoral College was designed to buttress the power of white rural voters, and true to that purpose, it continues to suppress the power of minority voters today. Critics may argue that Hillary Clinton lost because she failed to round up as many voters in 2016 as Barack Obama did in 2008 and 2012. But Clinton didn’t so much lose the national election as she failed to win enough support in several states stacked with white voters."

GOP ‘Faithless Elector’ Chris Suprun Who Claimed to be 9/11 First Responder Wasn’t Really One



Tell the truth or somebody else will tell it for you. That being said, after choosing the New York Times (instead of say an independent outfit) of all places to voice his intent to not vote for Trump, I just had a feeling that something was really off about this guy. And yeah, if anything that we've learned about this election it's that electors need to be more vetted in the future.

Far-Left Congressman Jim Hines Asks Electoral College To Block Donald Trump



Forget unethical, isn't what he's doing against the law? Either way, someone should put him on the hit-list for conservatives to make sure they get out of Congress next time he's up for re-election.
