In this context I would define corrupt as; Opperating in one's own best interests, putting them before those of the society whom they were elected to serve. "contempt for the concept of a popular vote" (as you put it) could certainly be included in this definition.
You have stated that you believe that the GOP as a party has displayed a contempt for deomcracy. Thus, within the bounds of the above definition the GOP is corrupt.
The GOP represents roughly half of the politicians in our government.
Er go, roughly half of our government is corrupt.
