    States Control Elections (none / 0) (#30)
    by kohler on Mon Nov 07, 2011 at 05:00:06 PM EST
    State election laws are not identical now nor is there anything in the National Popular Vote compact that would force them to become identical.  Indeed, the U.S. Constitution specifically permits diversity of election laws among the states because it explicitly gives the states control over the conduct of presidential elections (article II). The Founding Fathers in the U.S. Constitution permit states to conduct elections in varied ways.
    The National Popular Vote compact is patterned directly after existing federal law and preserves state control of elections and requires each state to treat as "conclusive" each other state's "final determination" of its vote for President.
