So when these blue states hijack our elections, that's when the purge begins. I am in a red state, these assholes want to make my vote not count at all. That means war.

So votes in Nevada literally mean nothing and the Nevada electoral college just follows the rest of the country instead of its own citizens.

Isn’t this unconstitutional?

Likely. I can think of a few ways this might end up in front of the SCOTUS, mostly because states have too much autonomy over running their own elections for "National Popular Vote" to be a meaningful thing.

  • The national vote is close even though no individual state is. A compact state demands another state do a recount and gets told to where to stick it.
  • Any state enacts a voting reform incompatible with NPV. Instant Runoff Voting is one such reform that has already been implemented in at least one compact state for non-presidential elections. IRV is a particularly fun example because if every state used it you could have, albeit under very unusual circumstances, an election where Jill Stein wins the IRV in every state and electoral district and is poised to become president with all 538 votes, until the compact states give their votes to Donald Trump because he won the National Instant Runoff Vote.
  • A non-competitive state used any of several legal or illegal means to run up the score for their statewide winner. IRV shows up again in this column since instead of having runoffs until majority, they could be run until unanimity. Also things like kicking a major candidate off the ballot, or lowering the voting age to 15, or giving voting rights to non-citizen residents.

Pilpul can make anything possible. Anything. “Shall not be infringed” and “AR15s and all semi autos are banned” = “constitutional” because of Jewish pilpul. “The right to free speech” and “I have the right to sexualize your children and brainwash them into destructive self harm” is a-okay because Jewish pilpul.

Pilpul is literally the way Jews rhetorically manipulate words and phrases to mean anything but what the original message was actually intended to convey. The earliest example is when greedy Jews were pissed that one of God’s laws said the working during the sabbath was a sin. So what’s a greedy kike to do? “Ah! Well, see if my SLAVE is actually the only one physically touching the money during transactions then TECHNICALLY it’s not “working on the sabbath”! I can open up shop on the sabbath and make shekels and be ‘legal’ as long as I don’t physically touch the money from a customer!”. This is THE example of Jewish pilpul. And every time you hear some headline about some rat fuck murderer, rapist, bank executive, or politician getting off the hook because of a legal technicality——THAT is the result of Jewish pilpul. The subversion of Justice.

The kike sages were the inventors of legalese. Look everywhere else on Earth back then, no other society had that shit, even the Greeks and Romans.

As if the Constitution means anything anymore. We still have FISA courts.

Funny...The Constitution is the supreme law of the land. It says there is an electoral college. Nevada can do whateverthefuck it wants and the electors from Nevada will choose the President like the Constitution says.

If this passes enough states the Republicans need to pass a law making it a felony to release the outcome of any single district before every single polling place in the US is closed. The media are hoping they can sway the election to Dems forever through how they release votes and suppress anyone not voting Dem.

This really is unbelievable. I never thought Nevada would do this shit, really thought it would be a holdout state.

Why would you think that a state where the population is centered around a place called 'Sin City' would ever be a holdout?

Anti authority nature of the place.

Built on gambling and prostitution when that shit was verboten.

I predict this will backfire on them horribly. Just like when the Dems broke the filibuster in the senate.
