Why are states willing to GIVE their electoral votes to California?

Our electoral college process is provided for by the Constitution in order to ensure each state has a voice in national politics where the Executive branch is concerned. If not for that process, the President could be chosen by a very few states with large populations.

But now, it seems 11 states and the District of Columbia are signing on to a ‘National Popular Vote Interstate Compact’ that gives its electoral votes to a popular vote winner.

Many of those states had given their electoral votes to the winner in those states; this change means votes of the entire country will coerce how these 11 states vote…

…NOT the votes of their own citizenry.

Consider this – absent California, Donald Trump won the popular vote (and we won’t even mention how many illegal aliens voted in that Left Coast sanctuary nightmare).

Remember, the state of California closes its poll last (except for Hawaii), and that it’s the most populous state in the Union (11 million MORE than next-ranked Texas).

This means a heavily-slanted Party vote within that state would force 11 states to vote as California did electorally…even if Party vote margins are equal or opposite that state.

The top 4 states in population have over 1/3 of the entire Nation’s population. Founding Fathers recognized that potential over-balance, and electorally rectified the situation.

Why citizens of 11 states and DC are willing to give up their vote is a mystery.

PREDICTION: Expect lawsuits after every election where the majority of votes within those 11 states are nullified by national popular vote margins for an opposition Party.

Ironically, many Democrat presidential hopefuls maintain eliminating the electoral process makes votes count, when, actually, the opposite is true…

but that won’t stop them from perpetuating the lie.
