Brian DerrickGUEST
This is how we level up how liberals think.
Brian DerrickGUEST
There is an effort to make the Electoral College obsolete through something called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, the NPVIC.
Brian DerrickGUEST
And what that means is that a bunch of states would get together and agree to give all of their electors to whoever wins the national popular vote.
Brian DerrickGUEST
So I would get all of Pennsylvania's electors, even if I lost that state, If I win overall the national popular vote.
Maximina JusonGUEST
Yeah.
Maximina JusonGUEST
And to Paul's point, moving towards a national popular vote doesn't mean a centralized election.
Maximina JusonGUEST
You're still going to have the states overseeing and the secretary of state of each state overseeing the elections.
Maximina JusonGUEST
You're still going to have members of both parties in each of the districts counting the votes.
Jonathan HafetzHOST
Yeah.
Jonathan HafetzHOST
So they're not the same.
Jonathan HafetzHOST
It's just a form of decentralization, but it's one that you lose the political equality, which is a key point that you're making in the film, which I guess is a segue a little bit to the national popular vote.
Jonathan HafetzHOST
Compact, which you focus on considerably in the film as an alternative short of amendment, which I think we should also talk about.
Glenn BeckHOST
That's the problem.
Glenn BeckHOST
Now, the second story, it ran this morning, Daily Wire, Jason Sneed of the Honest Elections Project on the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
Glenn BeckHOST
The idea says that...
Glenn BeckHOST
States should join the promise that their electoral votes will be assigned to whoever wins the national popular vote.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
It's already happening.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
There's a national popular vote compact, which has passed in several states.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
It's not enough to take effect.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
But essentially, these are laws that are being passed, mostly in blue states, that say that they will award their electors in the electoral college to the winner of the popular vote.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
There's not a possibility of a spoiler candidate in the same way.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
It depends on how we do it.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
The National Popular Vote Compact would still allow that because it's not a national popular vote.
Stephanie SkoraGUEST
It's a state popular vote.
Avi Wolfman-ArentHOST
Republicans took control because nobody showed up because everyone was extremely overconfident.
Avi Wolfman-ArentHOST
Tony on YouTube says I hope if Democrats achieve a trifecta, they will sign on to the National Popular Vote Compact, which will go a long way to making the Electoral College irrelevant.
Avi Wolfman-ArentHOST
And speaking of voting, Carol says what I would be excited about if Dems get a trifecta would be for them to change the congressional delegation from 10 Republicans and seven Democrats to seven Republicans and 10 Democrats.
Avi Wolfman-ArentHOST
A flip of six seats.
Allen WestHOST
They have already, these Marxists, come together in all these blue states.
Allen WestHOST
And they're putting something called the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
Allen WestHOST
National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
Allen WestHOST
M-N-P-V-I-C.
Allen WestHOST
And what does that say? Virginia was the last one to sign on into this with Abigail Spanberger.
Stephen PimparePANELIST
One.
Stephen PimparePANELIST
There are, if folks know about the National Popular Vote Compact, this is a way that we get rid of the electoral college without actually getting rid of the electoral college.
Stephen PimparePANELIST
That's a longer conversation.
Stephen PimparePANELIST
If we flip six legislative chambers in four states...
DamonHOST
Translation, the dense urban vote of a handful of states should decide the presidency and the rest of the country should just sit there and accept the result.
DamonHOST
The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is already in place in multiple blue states.
DamonHOST
A constitutional amendment is the cleaner path that they prefer.
DamonHOST
Either route abolishes the system the founders designed specifically so that a candidate must win support across regions, not merely pile up votes in the largest blue cities.

Mark MecklerHOST
Anything, again, remember, it has to limit the scope, power, and jurisdiction of the federal government.
Mark MecklerHOST
But I also believe, Dave, people are trying to do this, quote unquote, end run around the electoral college by doing the National Popular Vote Compact, saying that a state will vote its electors according to the National Popular Vote, That's unconstitutional because it essentially does away with the electoral college.
Mark MecklerHOST
I think it's very clearly unconstitutional.
Mark MecklerHOST
We've written about that.
