Title: Nevada to Give State’s Electoral College Votes to National Popular Vote Winner

 So this and other bills are basically telling the people in their states that their electors will no longer represent them, but instead represent constituents from other states.

 Excuse me, but WTF?

Totally Unconstitutional and "disenfranchising" to use a liberal code word to citizens of each state.  It is an illegal work around the Constitution.

 It's voter suppression on the face of it.  It's the most obvious form of voter suppression.  They're not even trying to hide it.

This movement will end on the first Wednesday in November 2020 when the electorate gives Donald Trump the popular vote win on the first Tuesday in November 2020.

I can’t wait to see Trump win the EVs for California and all the other leftist states.

I hope you are right, but that's going to be difficult to accomplish.  Today, it is just not cities, but suburbs around cities that are solid Democrat.  The Republican counties are getting pushed out more and more to rural areas with much less population.  The vast majority of people believe we are a Democracy, and the People elect the President. This is not true, we are a Republic, a collection of States.  Their voters tell their STATE'S Electors how to vote, and the STATE'S elect the President, not individuals.  The only reason this is an issue now, is that Hillary lost. 

The courts may have to get involved prior to 2020.  I would like to hear what OBJECTIVE Constitutional scholars think, but they may be hard to find.  The argument from the Democrats is that State's can assign EC votes anyway they want, and can ignore their voters wishes.  I can't believe that is Constitutional.
