GOP House Members Are Likely to Elect Former Soros Group Spokesman as Speaker of the House Who Wanted to End Electoral College. The Minnesota RINO was formerly a paid spokesman for the George Soros funded organization The National Popular Vote initiative.
The New York Post reported:
The National Popular Vote campaign launched in 2006 to support efforts to overhaul the Electoral College by passing laws that commit state electors to the candidate who wins the national popular vote.
About five years after the initiative’s launch, Emmer took a job as one of the group’s paid spokespeople.
“I believe it’s going to end up favoring Republicans … if you believe in our message,” Emmer said in a 2011 video interview posted on the website of Pennsylvania public affairs firm Triad Strategies.
