Must be that damn Electoral College again. When are we going to get rid of it?
They overperformed in FL and other Republican states but underperformed in democrat and “purple” states which is where they needed to make up ground.
Imagine, for a moment, if states had an “electoral college” system for the statewide offices of Gov, Lt Gov, AG, SOS. A system where each county got a certain amount of votes, regardless of population. It would eliminate the votes of the large, urban, Democrat-controlled cities from being able to outnumber the rural areas.
It’s like that even in the “Blue” states. Hell, NY is about as RED as it gets once you get out of NYC and a handful of other cities. Long Island is pretty damn RED, for the first time EVER as folks are tired of all of it.
For all the talk about how liberal Wisconsin is, I believe its on track to have a veto proof, Republican legislature.
