This law will never ever ever deny a Republican the Massachussetts electoral votes he rightly earned by virtue of the state's voters. The scenario where a Republican loses the national popular vote but carries Massachussetts is absurd on it's face.
But, of course, there could be a scenario where a Democrat loses the popular vote, after winning Mass by a huge margin. It'll be hilarious to watch all the dipshit massholes howl when their votes are all tossed aside as irrelevant and their electoral votes are given to the Republican candidate, by virtue of his strong showing in the deep south!
Morons.
Great post, and completely realistic. I’m not sure what the Dems in MA are thinking with this change of election law. I can’t see any way that it benefits the people a that state.
2012 Results in MA:
Barack Obama—1,000,000
Sarah Palin—5
National winner, popular vote: Sarah Palin.
Palin wins all MA electoral votes...
