GOP Support For Scrapping Electoral College Could Backfire Spectacularly
"A growing number of Republican voters want presidential elections decided by popular vote rather than the electoral college system, according to a poll, even though that would have favored Democratic candidates in recent history.
A Pew Research Center survey found that nearly two-thirds of U.S. adults (65 percent) say the way the president is elected should be based on who receives the most votes overall nationally, with 33 percent believing it should remain as who wins the electoral college count.
The poll also shows that just over half of Republican voters (52 percent) want to keep the electoral college system. However, the amount of GOP voters who want to switch to the popular vote currently stands at 47 percent, and has been increasing steadily for years."
