Originally published at: Lindsey Graham Helps Nebraska GOP Resurrect Effort To Screw Dems Out Of An Electoral College Vote - TPM – Talking Points Memo

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is leading a delegation for Donald Trump to Nebraska, where the senator is making a last-ditch effort to convince a critical mass of the state’s Republican lawmakers to change how Nebraska awards Electoral College votes, a shift that could turn the state into a winner-takes-all situation. Unlike most states, Nebraska splits…

This is a much better way to divvy up the EV votes. Jeez. Seems late in the game to do this.

Pillen has already wasted senators time and taxpayer money on one failed special election. Only in a red state would a total failure be allowed to fail so miserably again. Privilege has its benefits.

Like a little fluffy dog yipping and pulling on your trouser cuff.

Plus, it sounds terribly bleak. Kinda like driving to Buffalo to commit suicide.

Unfortunately Maine actually has standards about when and how the legislature can be called into session and there’s no longer time to make the amendment for this year.

This has the look of Trump yelling at Lindsey to “Do something! Anything!” doesn’t it?

Okay boss!

Fully agree this is a more representative way to allocate electoral votes, and aligns more precisely with the popular vote. I do not understand why it would be deemed an “unusual method of allotting votes”.

Anyhow, they have finally figured out how Trump says stupid dementia Don stuff:

You’re using “better” in the sense of “fairer”, “better for democracy”, and what the sad little grovelling worm from South Carolina is yammering about is “better for the felon”.
