Rep. Tim Walz (D-MN) told the audience at a town hall last week that he thought the electoral college was a very undemocratic at first blush but conceded Democratic legislation to abolish the law was merely sour grapes.

During the town hall, held in Worthington, Minnesota, a constituent asked Walz which was better: the electoral college or the popular vote.

“I’ve been asked to sign on and a whole bunch of people signed on and my good friend, I think Gene Green from Houston was carrying the bill to get rid of the electoral college,” Walz told the constituent.
