THE ELECTORAL
COLLEGE
Another contributing factor to Wilson's election to the Presidency, and
how the Illuminati controls the American electorate today, is
accomplished through a process known as the Electoral College.
Because delegates to the Constitutional Convention, which met in
Philadelphia in 1787, thought that the general public lacked the insight
and the judgment necessary to elect a President, and could be easily
misled by irresponsible candidates, they enacted the Electoral College
to do the job.
The President and Vice-President are the only public officials in the
country who are not elected through a direct vote of the people. Each
party, in every state, has a slate of electoral candidates, based on the
number of representatives it has in Congress. They are known as the
Electoral College. Presently, there are 100 Senators and 435
Representatives in the United States, for a total of 538 (includes 3
votes from the District of Columbia) electoral votes.
The electors of the Party receiving the highest vote are elected and
meet on the first Monday, after the second Wednesday in December, to
vote for their party's nominees. Even though the members of the
Electoral College are pledged to vote for the presidential candidate of
their Party, they are not constitutionally bound to do so, and can
change their mind at any time. Technically, however, a candidate wins
all of the state's electoral votes, if he wins a majority of the popular
votes. If a presidential candidate has the largest popular vote, but
doesn't obtain the necessary electoral votes, he doesn't win the
Presidency. This happened in 1824, 1876, 1888, and 2000. If no candidate
has a majority, then the House of Representatives chooses a President
from the three highest candidates, with all the Representatives from
each state combining to cast one vote for each state. If a
Vice-Presidential candidate receives no clear majority, then the Senate
chooses from the top two, with each Senator casting an individual vote.
Therefore, the candidate's objective is not to win a majority of the
popular vote, but a majority of the electoral votes, which is 270. Thus,
if a candidate could be guaranteed just eleven states (leaving 267
remaining electoral votes in 39 states, and the District of Columbia),
he could be guaranteed the Presidency: California (55), Texas (34), New
York (31), Florida (27), Pennsylvania (21), Illinois (21), Ohio (20),
Michigan (17), New Jersey (15), Georgia (15), and North Carolina (15).
Combined, these states have 271 electoral votes.
That is why you see a concentration of effort in these states at
election time. With the Illuminati controlling the media in these large
population centers, it is not a difficult task to alter public opinion
and sway votes to the candidate they choose. With these states in line,
the rest of the country generally follows. The bottom line is, that the
people's right to choose a President has practically been taken away,
and without the financial resources necessary to fight it, there is very
little that can be done.
