Democrats and the six people who like the winner-take-all Electoral College can rejoice. The initiative to reallocate California’s electoral college vote distribution seems dead.
This really is a relief for Democrats — and enhances their chances for the Presidency in 2008. But let’s be frank: this death also puts Electoral College reform on the backburner. And I’m not sure that is really a great result for the long term democratic health of all Americans.
