There is no electoral college in local elections...
No, there is no electoral college so I presume they are thinking of aggregating all the votes throughout the nation and comparing Dems to Reps. Silly, but that’s the only way a popular vote can be tabulated in these races. Everyone knows the House of Representatives differs considerably as to the number of people each representative has. (Still, it’s better proportional representation than the senate now that it is based on popular vote.)
They don’t know House seats are distributed based on population? That that is what the census is for?
They never let stupidity and ignorance get in the way of what they think is a good story.
Right! So they get 100% in some districts and less than 50% in others and end up losing a lot because their supporters concentrate in cities. They are hedging a potential disaster with the usual demagogic BS.
One can only guess they are thinking that they will win socialist districts in Brooklyn by 90:10, but then lose districts in places like MI or OH by 52:48
And that wouldn’t be fair
Or something like that....
Just tells you the intellect of these morons. Most are barely in their twenties.
They could win the majority vote nationwide and still lose the house.
