I too think the founders were thoughtful in how they created the laws of rule. I think we see the ramifications of voters not being limited to educated homeowners.

We have a terribly uneducated voting block which has wrecked havoc in my opinion…

That being said, one thing they did not do which has bothered me and I think was shortsighted was the lack of term limits for congress. One has to look no further than Nancy Pelosi to see the corruption. How these people stay in office for life for their own benefit. How much was AOC worth before her time in government and how much is she worth now? There are nefarious things at play.

Back to the Electoral College, Sarah is quite right about how telling it is that only “blue” elites support this. I agree that they keep changing the rules, and it is not democracy.

It is so creepy how they have played the 1984 playbook with double speak about democracy and other topics

I think that it’s telling that the states who have signed this are mostly (if not all) blue states. Changing the system because you’re afraid that the outcome won’t be the one you wanted is not democracy.
