I was going to say that DNC Chairman Tom Perez is ignorant of basic knowledge of the Constitution.
But his bio says he is a graduate of Harvard Law School.
So, he is not ignorant at all.
He’s just a Dem liar.
And no, spreading this lie will not put Hillary in the Oval Office.
Democratic National Committee chairman Tom Perez falsely claimed that the Electoral College is not “a creation of the Constitution.”
During a lecture at Indiana University Law School, Perez said the Electoral College “doesn’t have to be there,” asserting that the national popular vote should be the principal standard.
“The Electoral College is not a creation of the Constitution. It doesn’t have to be there,” he said. “There’s a national popular vote compact in which a number of states have passed a bill that says we will allocate our vote, our electoral votes, to the person who wins the national popular vote once other states totaling 270 electoral votes do the same.”….
Hey Mr. Perez, you know what isn’t in the Constitution? Primary super delegates. Will you eliminate super delegates for the 2020 primaries, so every Dem candidate will have an equal shot at acquiring delegates? Asking for a Bernie friend.
Maybe Perez hopes that enough low-information voters will fall for his lie.
