The Democrats have been complaining about the Electoral College ever since Hillary Clinton lost in November of 2016 (and to some degree since Gore lost in 2000), and now they’ve officially had enough. The wheels are in motion for a constitutional amendment that’s destined to be all show, no go:
A group of Senate Democrats will introduce a constitutional amendment to abolish the electoral college this week https://t.co/6SLjnQt7bb

The amendment to kill the Electoral College is being led by Sen. Brian Schatz and will be supported by Sens. Dick Durbin, Dianne Feinstein and Kirsten Gillibrand https://t.co/IKSq8u2Wwt

Considering what that would entail, file the story under “U” for “Uphill battle.”
Good luck with that… https://t.co/iEYhQTrL6D

Funny how liberals are always for the rights & fair representation of "the minority" until they're in the majority, Then it's mob rule all the way, baby! https://t.co/3d8Mq3c55n

The Dems must not think their proposal will go anywhere in the next couple years, or else we assume they wouldn’t have scheduled their 2020 convention to take place in Wisconsin.
Does it ever end with the Dems? https://t.co/RZvdZnoyHD

Radical Left Democrats lose election then want to eliminate Electoral College from the constitution. Trump wants to add citizenship question. Dems- you can’t do that it’s in the constitution.

Those Dems are really fussy about cherry-picking what they do and don’t like about the Constitution.
