Another scheme to circumvent the U.S. Constitution...Color me shocked....THis is pure Mob rule, especially because the democrats like the illegals on the voter rolls
Something like that......So Each state is responsible for policing its own rolls, but during covid there were a lot of shenanigans with mail in ballots and several battleground states including mine flipped, especially in a couple of counties around our state capital of Atlanta that always seems to have issues with voter integrity and it always seems to fall in the democrats favor...funny that. So they are pushing for this voter compact because they don't believe that its "fair" that all these hick voters derail the urbal socialist paradise that is around the corner if only the "bitter Clingers" would get with the program and accept the urban technocrats as their "betters" because because of their education, and breeding they are better to rule decide what is best in everybody's interest....The university professors told them so.

The Acme Rocket Aimed at the Electoral College The Democrats have found another way to lose the argument and still reach for the trophy.
By Francis Gauthier
That is the plain truth behind the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. It is not some harmless civics reform dreamed up by clean-handed patriots sitting around a schoolhouse stove. It is a political shortcut. A back door. A way to keep the Electoral College standing in the front yard like an old New England barn while quietly gutting the beams from the inside.
And if New Hampshire is foolish enough to shrug at it, we may wake up one morning and discover that presidential candidates no longer need to care what a taxpayer in Claremont, Newport, Berlin, Colebrook, Franklin, or Laconia thinks.
They will care what Los Angeles thinks.
They will care what New York City thinks.
They will care what Chicago, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Houston, Seattle, and the big political machines think.
The rest of us? We can wave from the stone wall while the campaign bus rolls by on its way to a donor breakfast and a television studio.
That is the story. Everything else is wrapping paper.
The Democrats are the Wile E. Coyotes of politics. They no longer seem interested in winning elections the old-fashioned way — by persuading enough Americans across enough states that their ideas are worth trusting. Instead, they keep going back to the Acme catalog of political contraptions.
There is always another gadget in the crate.
“Push Grandma off a cliff.”
Russian collusion.
Laptop disinformation.
Cemetery voter outreach.
Mail-in balloting.
Election season instead of Election Day.
And now comes their latest shiny contraption: the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, or NPVIC.
They call it reform.
I call it the Constitutionally Illiterate and Unbelievably Naïve Conspiracy — CIUNC.
It even sounds like something hitting the bottom of a canyon.
The Trick in the Toolbox
The compact works like this: states that join agree to give all their presidential electors to whoever wins the national popular vote, even if that candidate loses inside their own state.
Read that again, slowly.
A state could vote one way, and its electors could be handed to the other candidate because voters somewhere else outnumbered them.
That is not local self-government. That is outsourcing your state’s voice to a national crowd.
The compact does not kick in until member states control 270 electoral votes — enough to decide the presidency. So it sits there like a loaded spring under the porch steps, waiting for enough states to step on it.
Supporters say this is perfectly fair. Every vote equal, every person heard, one national total, nice clean arithmetic.
But politics is not just arithmetic. Neither is a republic.
A republic is structure. Balance. Restraint. The Founders knew something modern political consultants work very hard to forget: raw majority power can crush smaller communities flat. That is why America was built as a union of states, not one giant national blob with fifty administrative regions and a federal logo slapped on top.
New Hampshire is not California with frost heaves.
Why New Hampshire Should Care
New Hampshire has always punched above its weight.
We are a small state, but we are not a small people. We expect presidential candidates to show up, stand in a town hall, look voters in the eye, and answer questions from people who know how to spot baloney without a federal inspection sticker.
That is part of our political culture.
The First-in-the-Nation primary matters because it puts ordinary citizens near the front of the process. A candidate cannot just hide behind television ads and consultants. He has to come here. He has to shake hands with mechanics, farmers, veterans, retirees, loggers, nurses, small-business owners, parents, and taxpayers who have already heard every polished speech since the Carter administration and are not impressed by another one.
The Electoral College carries some of that same spirit into the general election.
It tells candidates: you cannot win by piling up votes in a few crowded places and ignoring the rest of the country. You have to build a coalition across states. You have to care about regions. You have to know that a voter in rural New Hampshire still counts for something.
The NPVIC changes that bargain.
It says: forget the states. Chase the national pile.
Once that happens, New Hampshire becomes campaign scenery. Nice mountains. Good diners. Fine maple syrup. Thanks for the memories.
Then the big money goes where the population is thickest. The television buys go where the biggest returns are. The national machines run the table. The rural taxpayer gets a postcard, a robocall, and maybe a candidate’s cousin pretending to have once driven through Concord.
A Back Door Around the Constitution
Here is the part that ought to bother every citizen who still owns a pocket Constitution, even if it is buried in the junk drawer under dead batteries and a 2009 tax bill.
If you want to abolish the Electoral College, there is an honest way to do it.
Pass a constitutional amendment.
That means broad national debate. Congress. The states. Public consent. Heavy lifting. The kind of lifting politicians avoid like wet firewood.
The compact does not do that.
It leaves the Electoral College standing on paper while changing how enough states use it to make it meaningless. It is not demolition with a permit. It is sneaking in at midnight with a sawzall.
That is why this scheme feels so slippery. It does not openly say, “We are abolishing the Electoral College.” It says, “No, no, the Electoral College is still there. We are simply agreeing to hand our electors to the winner of a national vote total.”
Well, that is like saying you still own your truck after someone removes the engine, tires, doors, and steering wheel.
Technically true, maybe. Useful? Not unless you need a planter.
Why the Left Really Hates the Electoral College
Let us not overcomplicate this.
The left hates the Electoral College because it sometimes stops them.
That is the root of the whole business.
When Democrats win under the rules, the rules are holy. When Republicans win under the same rules, suddenly the system is broken, racist, outdated, undemocratic, and probably causing bad weather.
They did not like 2000. They did not like 2016. So instead of asking why their message failed in enough states to matter, they blamed the scoreboard.
That is the modern left’s oldest habit: if an institution blocks the agenda, delegitimize the institution.
If the court rules against them, pack it.
If the Senate slows them down, abolish the filibuster.
If voters resist them, federalize elections.
If parents object, call them extremists.
If the Electoral College produces the “wrong” winner, gut it through an interstate compact and call it democracy.
The Acme catalog never closes.
The Old Yankee Smell Test
New Hampshire people understand the smell test.
If a fellow shows up at your door with a clipboard, a grin, and a “once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” you count your chickens before he leaves the driveway.
The National Popular Vote Compact does not pass that test.
It asks small states to surrender their leverage in exchange for a national promise. And anyone who has watched politics for more than fifteen minutes knows what national promises are worth once power changes hands.
Small states should never voluntarily give up constitutional protection. That is like selling your snowblower in July because the weather looks fine.
Winter comes.
Power concentrates.
The same people who tell New Hampshire, “Trust us, every vote will count,” will be the first to forget we exist when the campaign maps get redrawn around giant population centers.
The Electoral College forces presidential candidates to think about the country as a country — not just as a spreadsheet of high-density vote banks.
That matters.
It matters to the taxpayer.
It matters to the farmer.
It matters to the small-town business owner.
It matters to the parent who wants schools controlled locally, not by national political machines.
It matters to the veteran who did not serve a republic just so it could be managed by consultants with soft hands and hard drives.
The Roadrunner Keeps Running
In the cartoons, Wile E. Coyote always thinks the next gadget will work.
The rocket skates.
The giant slingshot.
The painted tunnel.
The exploding tennis ball.
The problem is never the plan, according to him. It is always bad luck, bad timing, or that smug bird.
Politics works the same way with the Democrats.
When their ideas fail to persuade enough Americans across enough states, they do not slow down and reconsider. They order another gadget. They build another scheme. They rename it “reform.” Then they act shocked when half the country sees the dynamite label on the box.
The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is just another Acme rocket.
And New Hampshire should not help light the fuse.
Bottom Line
The NPVIC is not about fairness. It is about power.
It would weaken small states, flatten local political culture, and turn presidential elections into national population contests dominated by big cities and political machines.
It keeps the Electoral College in name while trying to drain it of purpose. That is not reform. That is constitutional taxidermy.
New Hampshire should reject it cold.
Because once small states hand away their voice, they will not get it back with a polite letter and a stern town meeting speech.
They will have to fight for it.
Better to keep the voice now.
Better to guard the old constitutional fence before the cattle get out.
Better to tell the Acme salesman to take his rocket skates, his painted tunnel, and his national popular vote scheme back down the road.
New Hampshire still matters.
Let us keep it that way. 
Biblical tie-in: Fair rules matter because honest government depends on honest weights. “A false balance is abomination to the LORD: but a just weight is his delight.” — Proverbs 11:1. A people who let politicians rig the scale should not be surprised when liberty gets shortchanged.
