It
has become blatantly apparent in this election that unless you reside in a “Battleground
State”, you don’t mean shit. Sure, you can vote for some stupid local amendments or County
Coroner, but the real meat is in those battleground states. That’s why all
those “undocumented workers (wink-wink)” all want to flock there. Obviously, the solution to
leveling the playing field would be to eliminate the archaic electoral college
and have the direct election of the President. But THAT ain’t gonna happen in
our lifetime folks.
So
here's the next best thing. In addition to casting your vote for President and
Vice President, you can also cast your vote for which “battleground state” you
want it to count in. Surely you’ve heard the song "Georgia on My Mind”, well
why not make yourself a Virtual Voter in that state. “On Wisconsin” should be
able to be the fight song of anyone regardless of where they live. That way we
could have free and fair elections and still keep the stupid electoral college
in place, or alternatively give each state an equal number of electoral votes.
Just an idea…..but who knows.
