I wonder if it has occurred to Democrats that the 2020 presidential election and, in all likelihood, that in 2024 will be conducted under the rules that prevail now? In other words, even if there is a groundswell of public opinion supporting the abolition of the electoral college, something I find unlikely, it would take too long to come into effect in 2020.
The primary caucuses and elections start taking place in February. Between now and then isn’t a lot of time to amend the constitution.
We have reason to worry. Alexandria Cortes Didn’t come from a groundswell of public support. She was auditioned, selected and financed by men the voters never even heard of. And if they can buy office, anyone with money can do so as well.

All the talk does is keep the donors wallets open and keeps the rabble roused.
