Electoral College Breakdown

[JoeB131]

What flaw in the system?
If there was a flaw it was the BULLSHIT MSM POLLS.
In November the UE rate won't be 10%

Actually, it will be 10% next month. And the one thing we know about the unemployment rate is that it takes a lot longer to go down than it does to go up. For instance, it went from 5% to 10% in less than a year and half, but it didn't go back down to 5% until 2015 or so.

Biden had to take time off from his campaign in order to testify in Brennan's trial for sedition and treason...

Weird Beard Durhnam won't get his nonsense past a grand jury.

I keep hoping that one day, there will be an awakening; that the people of California will open their eyes and see what the Democraps who infest our state government are doing to us, and vote all of them out at the next election cycle, but it never happens.

But then you have to ask yourself WHY you all lost California?

Your state GOP went full out racist when it supported things like Prop 63 and Homophobic with Prop 8. Really, when your underlying message is "We hate you" to minorities and gays, you really never get to the discussion about supply side economics or limited government.

CA? Voter Fraud keep the dems in power. Less than 20,000,000 "registered voter" (Aka Illegals Aliens) and over 5,000,000 mail in ballots.

We'll see if Brennan gets offered a blindfold

There is nothing bizarre about the electoral college except when a republican wins the election. Some idiot lefties might consider the United States of America to be an anachronism but it is unique in the world where independent states make up a Union. No other country enjoys that concept. The intent of the electoral college, as anachronistic as it might seem to a-holes who were educated in front of the boob tube, is to insure that one state doesn't have unfair advantage over several other states because of it's population density.

Regarding presidential elections I possess the Doris Day attitude of Que Sera, Sera.

 

[ColonelAngus]

Where are you Joe?

If Joe Biden wins the election you do not post for a year.

If Orange Man wins I will not post for a year.

Let’s do it pussy.

No Hillary got 4 million more votes than Trump in California but she lost by 1 million votes in the other 49 states and got her ass whooped in the EC. Go ahead win by 4 million more votes in California again or 40 million it doesn't matter.

TRump will lose by 10 million next time and he'll lose most of the states I've listed in the OP.

Again, you don't crash the economy and get an attaboy.

If your post wasn't a lie...well no you still wouldn't have a valid point never mind.

No Hillary got 4 million more votes than Trump in California but she lost by 1 million votes in the other 49 states and got her ass whooped in the EC. Go ahead win by 4 million more votes in California again or 40 million it doesn't matter.

In fact, here we see the genius of the Electoral College system. No matter how big any one state is, it simply doesn't get to determine, by itself, the outcome of the entire election. Hitlery Clinton could have got 100% of the vote in California, and it would not have changed the outcome. She still needed to win enough other states, and get enough of their Electoral votes, to win. And she didn't.

Even by cheating, by welcoming in invading foreign criminals and letting them be counted in the population, toward Congressional and EC representation (which, by credible estimates, means that California has about nine more seats in the House, and nine more Electoral votes, than it legitimately should have), California wasn't able to dominate the election.

Our bicameral Legislative Branch is based on this principle, and in turn, the Electoral College based on it, to assure that the needs of the smaller states are not ignored, in favor of a few really large states. And this principles is more important today, than it was when it was first put into effect.

Exactly correct. 40 states would have no say or voice in anything, a handful of states would have total control and the corrupt politicians in Washington would kiss their ass. California could borrow and spend like there's no tomorrow and just demand the other 40 states bail out their pie in the sky government pensions. WAIT FOR IT...that's not a theory California already tried to do just that right after Obama was elected in 2008. Kind of shocked but Obama told them to pound sand, good for him.

That's the danger of a popular vote when the population is so concentrated in just a few states. Most likely after only a few years of popular vote presidential elections the country would break up with a majority of the smaller states forming a new country.

Uh, guy, we don't "enjoy" the Electoral College. The anachronism means we get presidents the people didn't want who were clearly not up to the job.

The thing is, if you live in a "Safe" state on either side, the candidates don't care about you. That this WILL come down to three states is not a good thing, it means the needs of the other 47 are largely ignored.

If a state has more people, it should have a bigger say because it's more important. We'd be in really bad shape if everyone in California died of Covid-19. We wouldn't notice if everyone in Wyoming died of Covid19.

But there's more. We all get angry about how every year we have "The lesser of two evils", but the reason why third parties never gain any traction is largely because of the Electoral College. So we end up with the candidates that are picked by New Hampshire and Iowa in the primaries, and then we end up with the president who is picked by maybe five or six swing states? That's fucking nuts.

Final point. You wingnuts need to be a little less short-sighted. At SOME point, Texas will become a blue state by virtue of Hispanic immigration/population growth. Trump has lost Hispanics for the GOP for generations. This will make it nearly impossible for you guys to win in the EC even if you DO somehow get a good candidate.

Uh, let's get real. The BIG States end up subsidizing the small states. How is this a good thing?

 

[rightwinger]

LMAO liberal denial ^^^. You people threw $1.2 billion in campaign war chest at Trump, enjoyed 90% pro Hillary free media coverage, hell you had 20% of the GOP rooting for Hillary and you still got your ass whooped bad. Good luck in 2020 with Biden

Trump lost by 3 million votes against an unlikeable candidate.

Now he's running against a LIKABLE candidate, and he's running a shitty economic record.

Now he's running against a LIKABLE candidate,

What office is the likeable candidate running for again?

POTUS

Trump ran on an “I hate Hillary” platform
People said .....I don’t like Trump, but I hate Hillary.

Once Comey dropped his bombshell, Hillary never recovered

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

Tell you what Joe, lets make a bet. If Trump wins the election, you don’t post for a year from Election Day. If Biden wins, I won’t post for a year from Election Day.

Seems fair right?

Nope. We had a bunch of you right wingers promise that when Obama won in 2012, and not a fucking one of you got the fuck lost.

And in 2010 the largest swing in the history of the US went from Demoncraps to Republicans. Nan from San Fransicko is going to be the one that swings it all Republican again. Thanks Blinkie Pelosi and your never ending impeachment...

Funny how a libtard always wants to get rid of the electoral college because they hate the midwestern states. But if the majority of people voted for the President, they would all be thanking that the college was still in tact. Just a bunch of hypocrites like Joe here

California has 55 electoral votes, Wyoming has 3. You should whine some more about Wyoming.
