Sorry, but I’m a little slow today. It’s already two senators per state and one elector for each representative district. How is what you’re proposing any different?

Sorry, I didn't explain. Two electoral votes are given to the winner of the whole state. Then one is given to the winner of each district. So Maine can be split 3-1 or 4-0. Nebraska with 5 can be split 3-2, 4-1 or 5-0. Republicans would salvage some EVs from the good areas of California.

I will reject the election if Biden wins because I know the only way he can win is with massive voter fraud.

Why should this be a surprise? Is there any person with an IQ over 70 who doesn’t recognize that today’s Rat Party is the By Any Means Necessary Party?

The EC speaks, that’s it. Anyone right or left who has problems with that is a traitor and needs to be stood up against the wall and shot.

BASEBALL IS UNFAIR!

The team with the most HITS should be declared the winner.

I thought it was a Crisis when Obama was elected twice, but I didn’t act like a demented, poopy-head, spoiled brat for eight years. Russia made me say that.

Yep, and they will be identified and harassed and they and their families threatened with harm.

I think I would be breaking windows and burning buildings if the electoral college were flipped based on faithless electors. Although some have voted against their instructions, there never has been a case where one has changed the election.

Who was the Gore thug who was trying to dig up information on Republican electors in 2000?

Trump plays football to put runs on the scoreboard, not get the most men on base.

Um, tough. The Constitution is the set of rules. If anyone wants a sure civil war, just break those rules and try to force everyone to accept it.

There is indeed a very high chance the Left will reject the election results if Trump wins, but they are sharing their plans in an attempt to scare the emotional white women into voting for Biden. “Vote for us if you want the craziness to stop!” Of course, at this point, the Democrats don’t have total control over the leftist nuts and things will continue to spiral out of control, but that’s a different matter.

I think Puff the Magic Dragon at one riot would solve the problem of all these insurrectionist rioters permanently. Let their families search through the bite-size body parts to see if little grad student Evan Waperstien or Latonda Williams is that bloody clump of hair. That and threats to take away Title 4 financial aid at universities...aka breeding grounds from this crap.

I am hoping like Hell that Trump wins the popular vote so that he can take California, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, New Mexico, Illinois, DC, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, and Hawaii.

That’s 16 States. I hope the rest, another 20 or so, finish their popular vote law so that Trump can sweep all 50 States!
