If there are only 1-2 defectors in each state, it will not be an issue so long as there are enough Republican Representatives from the respective state to override them. As I understand it, Trump needs the majority of 50 states, not of 538 Representatives.

President Trump is NOT going to lose PA, MI & WI, PLEASE!!!

I know that we are going to send a horrible Republican never Trumper from Colorado to Congress in a hard Republican district.

Does Colorado even have a majority Republican House delegation? If not, that would be irrelevant. Each state has one vote per House delegation.

The house selects the president by getting a single vote from each state from the top 3 candidates. The Senate elects the VP.

Interesting thing is that D.C. will not vote in this type of election. District residents have no voting representation in the House of Representatives.

Mark Simone,a great NYC talk show host (and huge Trump supporter),often speaks of the "private" polls that campaigns conduct.He says that Presidential campaigns pay millions for these polls and that they're far more accurate and honest than anything you'll see in the NY Times or on MSLSD.

He says that *those* polls show DJT in the lead.

Nate Silver’s record of predictions is not good. Recently Nate Silver has been flirting with Texas going blue. That map is garbage.
Rich Baris https://x.com/Peoples_Pundit has been much more accurate.

Arizona Court Rules Nearly 98,000 Arizonans whose citizenship hadn’t been confirmed can vote the full ballot.

Arizona doing it’s part for the democrat party all their votes need to be froze until all names are cleared.

In such a tie, isn’t it decided by the House of Representatives, the House seated in January???
