Hawaii Governor Linda Lingle must either sign or veto SB 2898 by late Tuesday evening (April 22). As of 1:30 pm Hawaii time, her office says she is still considering it. If she vetoes it, the legislature is likely to override her veto, since the bill passed by overwhelming majorities in both chambers. The legislature would have time to override her veto since it doesn’t adjourn until May 1. SB 2898 is the National Popular Vote Plan bill.
Very slowly the Electoral College erodes away. Sweet.
She vetoed it.
Not a problem. Override on its way.
A national popular vote is inevitable. Patience my friends.
