[joko]

Why is Lindsey Graham all over other states’ elections? Go home Lindsey! You don’t live in or represent Nebraska!

[BethDunn-vj]

Glad to see atleast 1 republican still has morals and won't stoop to cheating.

Abolish Electoral College and Reform the Supreme Court.

PROUD of my state senator Mike McDonnell---and I am not a repub....HE did what was RIGHT, instead of falling in line to maga. THANK YOU SIR

[nicolesalmond]

If changing the way the electoral votes are cast changes the results of the elections, when there is no change in the popular vote, it just proves that we need to get rid of the electoral college.

[JenniLudes]

Dump the Electoral College. One person, one vote for presidential race.

[warrencalupitan]

I am so sick and tired of you, Lindsey Graham.

Say NO to the tyranny and oppression of Trump and his Project 2025 extremists. Vote for common sense Democrats who will protect our Constitution, our freedom, and our civil and human rights, Vote Blue up and down the ballot and in numbers too large to suppress, manipulate, or overturn 💙🇺🇸🌊☮️
