This is nothing more than an attempt to stop Trump from winning in 2020. Its irresponsible, dangerous and It will eventually lead to succession. Our founding fathers knew what they were doing “leave it alone”.
SCOTUS can't step in. This entirely States rights.
Says you.
People said that the Supreme Court would not step in to decide the 2000 election either because it was a 'states issue'. Ask President Gore about that one.

Oh, please, stop the drama. I realize the Right loves the electoral college because it stacks the deck in your favor, but think about this...……...why would not the fairest way to vote be "one person, one vote" ? How is it fair that a certain percentage of ACTUAL VOTERS have their votes cancelled out because of some imaginary line drawn through their State ?
Any other election is run on the basis that if 10,000 actual people vote for one person, and 9,900 actual people vote for another guy, the one who got 10,000 wins. How is that so hard to accept and understand ?
The Right loves the flawed system of counting votes for obvious reasons, and , with Trump declining in popularity, he needs all the help he can get. But the day is coming when this antiquated, unfair system of counting votes will go away, it is inevitable.
Oh, and there won't be this mass succession you are worried about, this isn't 1776 any longer.

No it doesn't stack the deck in our favor. It creates the ability for lesser populated states to have a say in electing Presidents. The STATES elect Presidents not people. Remember the intent was that your STATE government was to be your PRIMARY government, not the Feds which have usurped power since the Civil War. The theory was that your state capital and thus politicians were closer and you could have more influence over them.
You just don't want the Electoral College because then L.A. and NYC would rule the entire country and we'd never have another Republican President again. Democrats want ONE PARTY DEMOCRAT RULE. That is what abolishing the EC is all about.
The idea is Constitutional, and no, such thing would not lead to the country to break apart. As a matter of fact, the country is now more broken and divided than it has ever been thanks to the media.
^ Fixed it for ya.
