MINORITY RULES
The basis for the National Popular Vote argument is the position that everyone should have an equal vote. This concept is generally considered “Democracy;” however, as James Madison described it in Federalist Paper #10, a Democracy is “a society consisting of a small number of citizens, who assemble to administer the government in person.” It requires that EVERY PERSON WITH A VOTE must gather and CAST THEIR VOTE each and every time an issue needs to be decided. To assume that the “One Person One Vote” argument holds any validity whatsoever, we must also assume that, at the very least, a majority of the population will, in fact, cast their votes. Guess what? That doesn’t tend to be the case.
