As a teacher of 35+ years, I now tutor mathematics, writing, and computer programming.
Adam Carrington is a professor at Hillsdale College, an institution I greatly admire (their online courses are superb). He wrote a piece for the Federalist about the Texas v.

This is a hour long presentation on voter fraud. As a database person, I found it extremely compelling. Watch it before YouTube scrubs it.
I have seen writers say that we conservatives are unduly afraid of the National Popular Vote Initiative. To that I reply that our fear is not undue. If the NPV is adopted, then the huge population centers on the coasts (LA, NTC, SF, etc.) will indeed control the vote, rendering the rest of the country without voice.
For proof, I point to my state, Virginia. If you look at the map, 91% of the state is Republican (proof of this claim was seen Monday at the gun-rights rally in Richmond). Yet the governor and both houses are Democrat. Why is this? Because the large population centers, although small in acreage, have more than enough people to control the voting results. Fairfax county, Norfolk, and Richmond are solidly Democrat, and they carry the state.
So for those who want to see what the National Popular Vote Initiative would do, look at Virginia. That is the result.
Folks, as a resident of Virginia, I would like your reaction to the following. In reaction to the laws currently being passed in Richmond to provide “common sense” restrictions on guns, West Virginia has offered to take in the counties of western and southwestern Virginia. This would allow our rulers from Fairfax county to make their laws in peace, and it would allow those who are “bitterly clinging” to our guns and religion to join our less-enlightened brethren. So, what do you think?
