Immigration Fraud plus Electoral Fraud Contributed by George Mellinger
But last week the California Senate passed legislation to award the state's Electoral College votes to the candidate who has received the most popular votes nationally--whether Californians chose him or not. A similar bill passed the Assembly on May 30, so it will soon be up to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to sign or veto the bill.
In my opinion, this would be the worst constitutional innovation since prohibition, possbly even erlier.
Second, in any direct national election there would be significant election-fraud concerns. In the 2000 Bush-Gore race, Mr. Gore's 540,000-vote margin amounted to 3.1 votes in each of the country's 175,000 precincts. "Finding" three votes per precinct in urban areas is not a difficult thing, or as former presidential scholar and Kennedy advisor Theodore White testified before the Congress in 1970, "There is an almost unprecedented chaos that comes in the system where the change of one or two votes per precinct can switch the national election of the United States."
And in this context we need to consider the effects of massive illegal immigration, and the frequent encouragement by Democrat activists of non-citizens to vote anyway. Is this part of what certain scoundrels have in mind?
