Nobody will ever need to campaign in Ct anymore
https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/05/07/609060190/connecticut-oks-bill-pledging-electoral-votes-to-national-popular-vote-winner?
Connecticut is poised to commit its electoral votes to whichever U.S. presidential candidate wins the nation's popular vote — regardless of who wins the state.
By embracing the plan, Connecticut's General Assembly gave new momentum to a push to change how Americans elect their president.
Ten states and the District of Columbia are already in a compact to pool their electoral votes and pledge them to the popular-vote winner. With Connecticut added, the compact's voting power would rise to 172 — fewer than 100 electoral votes away from the 270-vote majority that decides the presidential contest.
Connecticut's Senate gave final approval to the bill over the weekend, using a 21-14 vote to send the legislation to Gov. Dannel Malloy — who responded by saying, "I applaud the General Assembly for passing this commonsense legislation."
"With the exception of the presidency, every elected office in the country, from city council, to United States senator, to governor, is awarded the candidate who receives the most votes," Malloy said in a statement. "The vote of every American citizen should count equally, yet under the current system, voters from sparsely populated states are awarded significantly more power than those from states like Connecticut. This is fundamentally unfair."
The bill adopts an interstate compact that's officially called "The Agreement Among the States to Elect the President by National Popular Vote."
The agreement won't kick in unless it's backed by enough states and other voting areas to claim a majority of Electoral College votes.
In addition to Connecticut, the other jurisdictions in the pact are: California, Hawaii, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington state, along with Washington, D.C.

You do realize a dozen other states already do this, right?

just do subvert the constititionally determined way of deciding national elections that has worked flawlessly for the entire history of the country, bro
just do potentially vote contrary to the will of your own state constituents, bro

yep. remember this idiocy in 2016?
OLYMPIA — One-third of Washington’s 12 Democratic presidential electors went rogue on Monday, breaking pledges to honor the state’s popular vote for Democrat Hillary Clinton.
In acts of symbolic protest, three voted instead for former Secretary of State Colin Powell, while one voted for Faith Spotted Eagle, a Native American elder and activist from South Dakota.

What I hate about shit like this is that we have a way to change this: amend the constitution.
If there is overwhelming popular support for a national popular vote for president, then this will be easy to implement.
If not, then stop with this backdoor bullshit.

Lol, same with gun laws. Anything the dems suggest is "common sense".

A voter in Wisconsin exercises much more pull in the US Senate than a voter in California. Is he saying that should change?
What is the smallest % of the country that could control the Senate?

Okay but this was clearly an unintended consequence the founders didn't think through. We can correct this now.
