      Our second longwinded question about the Electoral College today! This time to Beto. It really has rocketed up as a Dem priority, after years of being worried about the "sore loser" jab.

          If the Trump regime proves anything, it is that our system of government is irreparably broken. A Constitution written for 1789 simply no longer functions and cannot be amended enough to fix. We need a new constitutional convention to start over from scratch.

          Larry Lessig is arguing this case on behalf of "faithless electors." His stated goal is to blow up the Electoral College altogether, persuading the American people to adopt a constitutional amendment that would move to a popular vote for president.
