Possibly a think tank for political strategy. I agree with you in that they are eyeing the results of banning certain voices, same as Twit is doing. Just like you said...how it modifies their behavior, and how it affects the behavior of those replying to them.

Yes, definitely strange. I was thinking maybe it was the year the website was created. Maybe...?

Could be. I didn't know that many states were on board for the (NPVIC) National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Popular_Vote_Interstate_Compact

I apologize. I'm not sure how that reply I posted was directed to you when I could've sworn I was replying to someone else, but yes, to reply to your post: Yes, a think tank, and this website is their means of communication? Not very intelligent or secure if you ask me.

I never realized that either about the NPVIC. There's a lot of info in this blog entry that needs to be addressed independently of the other topics, and appreciate you bringing that one up.

No problem. Since they can't do away with the electoral college, and go on popular vote alone, this is their sneaky way of getting whoever wins the most popular votes the presidency. It's just another way for the most populous blue states to decide an election. I was surprised to see the chart showing the % of Republicans in favor of it.

Yes, pretty sneaky of people wanting 1 vote to count the same no matter where you live. Instead of people in rural areas having more of a vote.

And they’re doing this via a web site, how?
