It ' s not up to the GOP , it ' s up to the Electoral delegates . <| sep |> I love lurking at questions , but never really answer them . <| sep |> I ' m not saying the results are good or bad , I ' m saying the Feds shouldbt be the ones making the decision , You are saying that , because you know exactly what the decision would be . The Feds are the ones that should be making the decision . It isn ' t a power grab anymore than the State of Texas passing a law on the topic would be . Let ' s not be theatrical here , there is no difference between the Federal Government doing something and the State doing it , except the State has the ability to do things in its own territory and the Fed has the ability to do things nationally . I like how you conveniently ignored the argument entirely . The relevant case law on this particular statute is US v . San Antonio Metro , if you ' re interested . Not about the commerce clause generally about this law , specifically .
