Lifting the 435 seat limit on the size of the U.S. House would make the Electoral College fairer.

114. No,you are wrong

The National Popular Voter proposal does not need to be adopted in every state. All that is required is the adoption by states with 270 electoral votes. That is not all of the states. 11 states with 165 electoral voters have adopted this proposal already. We just need states with 105 electoral votes. I have three friends who are members of the Texas legislature who are thinking about proposing this yet again even though it may not be adopted.

Congressional republicans will never adopted your amusing concept. The GOP has an advantage in the electoral college that they will not give up without a fight. In addition, your amusing proposal would require 60 votes in the Senate and that this not likely. In the real world, the only proposal that makes sense is one that is not dependent on the approval of Congressional republicans. The only proposal that meets this criterion is the National Popular vote

As the concept in your OP for the powerful tool to get people to the polls, you do know that Sanders so-called revolution was a total bust?? According to what I have seen, Sanders did not expand the base of the party at all. The claim that Sanders brought in new voters is not supported by the facts https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/02/10/sorry-bernie-sanders-there-is-zero-evidence-of-your-political-revolution-yet/

Bernie Sanders recorded a resounding victory in New Hampshire's Democratic primary Tuesday. He crushed his rival, Hillary Clinton, with no less than 60 percent of the vote. If Sanders hopes not only to win the election but to achieve his ambitious progressive agenda, though, that might not be enough.

To succeed, Sanders might have to drive Americans who don't normally participate to the polls. Unfortunately for him, groups who usually do not vote did not turn out in unusually large numbers in New Hampshire, according to exit polling data.

...As for Sanders, he credited his victory to turnout. "Because of a huge voter turnout -- and I say huge -- we won," he said in his speech declaring victory, dropping the "h" in "huge." "We harnessed the energy, and the excitement that the Democratic party will need to succeed in November."

In fact, Sanders won by persuading many habitual Democratic primary voters to support him. With 95 percent of precincts reporting their results as of Wednesday morning, just 241,000 ballots had been cast in the Democratic primary, fewer than the 268,000 projected by New Hampshire Secretary of State William Gardner last week. Nearly 289,000 voters cast ballots in the state's Democratic primary in 2008.

The exit polls show that the claim that Sanders expanded the base is false in the real world. If sanders so-called revolution did not expand the base, then why would this proposal?

As for my tone, I am sorry that you are offended if someone points out that you are wrong. If you dislike posters pointing out that your posts are wrong, then either research your positions or come back with facts to back up your position. I deal with facts and not feelings.
