10 States will decide the 2024 Election

[rightwinger]

The election is meant to appoint a President that is a representative for the entire country, not just for highly populous areas.

Exactly
The President represents the country not the states

One man, one vote for President.
It is in every other election

If you are a Republican in a predominantly Democratic state, you might as well sit out Presidential Elections. Your vote will not count

It would in a popular vote

Wrong, your vote was counted, but didn't win. Think of it as each state having its own election which is representative of the majority of people in that state. We are a country made of of states, each of which have rights in an of themselves and each of which has different ideals. Each state should be represented.

By entire country, I mean every state. We are a nation of states whether you like it or not.

Do your rural areas receive federal funding to pay for major infrastructure, schools, hospitals, power, communications?
Most do

Red states receive more per Capita federal funding than blue states

Yes, they do receive more funding, but guess why that is? Democrats are by far and away the lower income people in red states. County maps in each of these states show this dynamic. There are many blue counties in my state that must be heavily funded. They are not just poor, but really poor and really Democratic. If the blue counties were removed from the map, my red state would not require nearly the amount of federal funding as any blue state.

The bottom line is that Democrats love to look at red and blue states with regards to funding, but they don't want to get into the voting demographics of these states because that would reveal the real truth behind who is actually taking the federal money.

Yes, this is true. It allows Democrats to streamline the fix and and concentrate their harvesting, mass mail-in balloting and phony water main breaks to these specific states. I'll take it a step further and say they only really need to concentrate their efforts on the high population centers of these states where they have heavily Democratic leaders and citizens at the polling stations. They are much more likely to look the other way as long as it favors Democrats. Democrats can't get the rural votes as easily in any state, but they can drive their Biden for President wrapped ice cream truck through the cities and offer free Nutty Buddies for every mail-in ballot "correctly" filled out and collected.

Why would the Dems concentrate their efforts on the high population centers if they already get the vast majority of those votes?

The Electoral Vote makes your individual vote worthless

Clearly you flunked civics.

Cute post, but a lame try.

It's quite entertaining that they want us to believe that they actually can't figure that out.

Yep. It's been that way for a while now. Before one vote is cast in a national election, you can immediately go down the list of states and put just about all of them in the red or blue column. There are only five or six states that decide these elections and there is only a small percentage of independent voters that decide those swing states.

That's why you don't see presidential ads on TV in Kansas.

Isn’t it wonderful how libs believe your vote is worthless? Talk about disenfranchising voters….sheese!

Let's just ignore elections and install whoever is he pollsters choose

When voting for President, the vote of someone in the city should count the same as anyone else.
One man, one vote

Rural voters are already over represented in the Senate

Because we have an electoral college and they need to win the state. They can win the state by harvesting votes from known Democratic areas. They can also much more easily cheat because virtually everyone running these polling centers are HEAVILY Democratic. Remember, in the 2016 election there were some rather large batches of votes that were counted late in the night that were inordinately in favor of Biden. Those are the types of votes that pushed Biden over the edge in the swing states. These ballot dumps wouldn't exactly help them in most rural areas and what do you know, there were no such dumps in rural areas.

Why don't all the states just secede away from our tyrannical govt and form their own independence.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

Why do we bother with the others?
Nationwide pollsters waste tens of millions of dollars conducting nationwide polls and telling us who is ahead every week.
Recent elections have shown how worthless those polls are.

Why not have polls that only concentrate on the ten states that are actually close and decide the ultimate Electoral Vote?

I’m curious to see how many of those 10 will refuse to put Trump on the ballot due to the 14th amd.

There is no way these people truly believe the junk they spew. If the Republicans pulled exactly the same shenanigans that Democrats pulled in 2016, they would be up in arms. They are mindless bots who don't care one iota about the integrity of the elections as long as they win. They are too shallow to see the danger a non-secure election poses to our entire country. Any effort by Republican to secure elections is met by the infamous "disenfranchisement" foolishness and many of these people actually by it. Sheeple.

The right is doing just that.
Tell us about “the Biden crime family” and Ukraine. Or China.

I disagree. Let's use my favor topic of left-wing hypocrisy as an example. The SALT deduction was capped by Trump at 10k/yr. This means that people from high property tax states(blue) could only right off up to 10k of their property taxes to the federal government. Previously, there was no cap, so a person in a blue state, or someone with a lot of property in any state, could right off the entire bill. A person living in the Hamptons in a 5 million dollar home could pay as much as 100k in property tax and they could previously write all of that off their income. What tax payers make up that difference at the federal level? You guessed it, those in lower tax states. Guess who raised the biggest stink about the SALT cap? You guess it again, Democrats.

This is one example of why it matters that each state gets representation at the federal level. State and federal taxes are not mutually exclusive and I don't like footing the federal bill for the liberal policies of blue states.

No, tell us more about the insurrection attempt where the Republicans and Trump conspired to overthrow the most powerful nation on earth with some zip ties.

Sorry snowflake, these things..don't happen.
Put forth better candidates that aren't picked from the whack-a-doodle of the month club...and you might find yourself winning elections again.

Don't be so hard on them, they run the best they have already.
