The Rhode Island House will vote on HB 7388 on May 1. This is the National Popular Vote Plan bill. It is likely to pass, because the House has 75 members and 45 of them are co-sponsors of the bill.
The Rhode Island legislature passed the same bill in 2008, but the Governor, Republican Donald Carcieri, vetoed it. Carcieri is no longer Governor. The current Governor is Lincoln Chafee, an independent.
NO uniform definition of Elector-Voter in the NPV scheme from Hell.
How many of the usual suspect regimes will be having children, felons, mentally ill, foreigners, etc. voting for a Prez/VP if the NPV scheme from Hell somehow takes effect ???
Gov. Chaffee has previously expressed his support for NPV.
