Hawaii Political Info introduction: Hawaii is among nine states that have passed legislation altering the nature of the Electoral College, which is provided for in the U.S. Constitution.

Soros, one of the wealthiest men in the world, is a Hungarian-born Jew with Wall Street ties who takes great interest in manipulating the political system. The hand-tying of Electoral College delegates by the legislative change is going to make it easier to control and manipulate the presidential election, particularly by foreign interests, such as AIPAC, Israel and China. Founding Father Alexander Hamilton wrote in Federalist Paper #68 that the Electoral College was created to prevent such detrimental influences.
