Advancing the latest \u201cprogressive\u201d scheme to upend our Constitution and make the people serve the government, Governor Abigail Spanberger has signed a bill forcing Virginia to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC). This ruse to overturn the Electoral College, a critical safeguard that ensures equal presidential representation for all Americans, is now just 48 votes away from national implementation.<\/p>

The coalition seeks to force the presidential selection to be decided by popular vote alone. This would favor Democrats in two important ways, which is why Spanberger has speedily signed on. First, controlling the vote in America\u2019s most densely populated cities would be a near-guaranteed national victory. Replete with Tammany Hall-style power dynamics and political horse-trading, these cities are already Democrat strongholds.<\/p>\n

Second, with the SAVE America Act stalled, Democrats will keep peddling the lie that voter ID disenfranchises minorities, while flooding election offices everywhere possible with mail-in ballots of uncertain origin.<\/p>\n

The NPVIC says that states collectively holding at least 270 Electoral College votes must pass laws assigning their Electoral College votes to the popular vote winner. As of now, 18 states and the District of Columbia have done this, for a total of 222 votes. None require photo ID at any point in the voting process, and all went for Kamala Harris.<\/p>\n

According to the coalition website, \u201cSix additional states with 65 electoral votes (Arizona, Michigan, New Hampshire, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin) are especially promising places for obtaining the 48 electoral votes needed before 2028.\u201d<\/p>\n

With the coalition falling hard on political lines, the situation is troubling. All six of their targeted states have gubernatorial elections this November, with proven Bill of Rights abusers like Jocelyn Benson of Michigan favored to win. Although one or even both houses in some states have voted to join the popular vote compact at various times, the governor\u2019s signature has been the greatest hurdle. If the opportunity to codify this popular-vote scheme is seized by incoming administrations, a permanent woke regime in America that ends limited government and equality under the law is a real risk.<\/p>\n

There is a way to stop this race toward totalitarianism. At the time of the founding, James Madison argued in Federalist 43 that \u201cthe minority of citizens<\/em><\/strong> may become a majority of persons<\/em><\/strong>, by the accession of alien residents, of a casual concourse of adventurers, or of those whom the Constitution of the State has not admitted to the rights of suffrage…\u201d<\/p>\n

He warned during the Virginia ratification debates that states, if left to their own devices in administering federal elections, could betray the agreement, subvert the national government, make their own treaties, and undo the virtues of unified national defense. This concern gave rise to the Elections Clause, which grants Congress authority over the states regarding the time, place, and manner of federal <\/em>elections.<\/p>\n

The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment went further. These men had learned the brutal cost of maintaining the Union in the face of dissolution and devised methods to prevent any State from seceding again.<\/p>\n

Congress addressed the issue of betrayal by electoral fraud<\/em> head-on in the second section of the Fourteenth Amendment. This section penalizes States that infringe on the voting rights of their qualified citizens. Debates at the time made clear this had nothing to do with race; it is a guard against disloyalty. Using a ratio of injured voters to the total number of qualified voters, the state is reapportioned.<\/p>\n

When states decline to legally qualify voters by failing to verify identity, citizenship, and eligibility under State law, they commit multiple injuries:<\/p>\n
