Fla Dem Sen-nominee Angie Nixon backed abolishing Electoral College, ranked-choice voting in resurfaced clips

Resurfaced clips show Florida Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon supporting abolishing the Electoral College , embracing ranked-choice voting and allowing voters to register on Election Day in a series of comments Republicans are seizing on as the democratic socialist begins her general-election campaign.

In one March 14 clip with the Clay County Speaks podcast, Nixon was asked about eliminating the Electoral College.

"Abolish the electoral college, I’m fine with that," Nixon said.

"I believe one vote, one person.

We would have a different country right now if that was the case." She then supported abolishing the Senate filibuster, which gives the minority party a block on the majority's agenda.

5 TAKEAWAYS FROM FLORIDA SENATE PRIMARY: GOP SEN ASHLEY MOODY WILL FACE DSA'S NIXON Nixon also rejected nonparty voters participating in Democratic primary elections, saying it "marginalizes" the voter’s voice — echoing a rationale historically advanced for the Electoral College's protecting smaller states from being drowned out by more populous ones.

Asked separately about ranked-choice voting , Nixon responded, "I’m totally fine with that." Nixon expressed the same positions publicly during a June online question-and-answer session with voters.

WATCH: DEMOCRATS ADMIT WHEN THEY'D ELIMINATE THE FILIBUSTER AS SAVE ACT FIGHT HEATS UP On the same Clay County Speaks podcast, Nixon also advocated same-day voter registration .

"I also believe that," she said, "you can register same day and vote that day." Florida currently closes voter registration ahead of Election Day rather than permitting voters to register at the polls.

WHO IS ANGIE NIXON? BULLHORN-WIELDING SOCIALIST UPSETS ESTABLISHMENT FAVORITE IN SUNSHINE STATE STUNNER "Far-left socialist Angie Nixon isn’t running to protect our elections — she’s running to dismantle them," RNC Election Integrity Communications Director Ally Triolo told Fox News Digital in a statement.

"From abolishing the Electoral College and embracing ranked-choice voting to attacking voter ID and commonsense election safeguards, Nixon’s radical agenda is a direct threat to American election security.

Anyone determined to tear down this sacred pillar of our nation is unfit for public office." Fox News Digital reached out to Nixon's Florida state representative's office and her campaign for comments and an interview, but they did not immediately respond.

Nixon, a Florida state representative and member of the Democratic Socialists of America, stunned the Democratic establishment last week when she defeated heavily funded former national security official Alexander Vindman for the party’s U.S.

Senate nomination.
