A proposed constitutional amendment in Maryland would allow the Democratic supermajority in Annapolis to redraw House districts more easily to oust the state’s lone Republican in Congress. But a majority of Maryland voters do not plan to vote for it, a poll found.

This poll is junk. It doesn't even use the official wording of the ballot question, and the wording it does use ("eliminate the requirement that X") affects the way people answer.

ooh ooh now talk about how republicans: implement the vast majority of gerrymandering, which is how they maintain a majority; evicerated the voting rights act; are trying to get the supreme court to endorse the most rigged maps to favor white people. and let’s poll americans on that

it made me wonder... According to the National Archives , 1824, 1876, 1888, 2000 and 2016 are the five occasions when the national popular vote leader did not become president. Makes a fairly good case for ditching the electoral college? Not sure what effect on State districting though. 🤔
