    I see it like this, for easy math.
    Let's say a state has 10 EVs. A million people vote. Candidate A gets 600K votes, and Candidate B gets 400K. Well, Candidate A gets 6 EVs, and Candidate B gets 4.
    I don't know if it would mathematically change anything or not, but at least the 400K could feel like their voice and interest were heard.
    It's a whole lot better than Candidate A winning 500,001-499,999 and getting all 10 EVs.

    Lindsay was begging for money just before the 2020 election but won by like 10. If Cruz loses, there's a ton more worries for the R's come Nov. 5.

    I hear you, which is why I think if it's at least broken down by congressional district, you probably get the same net result.

    I was well aware of exactly what you meant, but I never pass on a chance of making myself the punchline of my own sense of humor.

    I keep hoping for bad things to happen to Coach Prime, and this is the best you can do?

    Sad!

    Wow. You knew it was coming, but still ... wow.

    Does AOC jump into the race? If she doesn't win, she still has her House seat in an off year.

    Guessing someone let AOC know in advance. (this was before the indictment dropped) A pretty huge political play on AOC's part unless she knew he was going to be caught in the web.

    Most surprising thing is that Adams is the first sitting NY mayor indicted. I mean, there have been some real scumbags who have held that post. Can't wait to see the NY Post headline.

    I thought the big complaint about Adams was he hadn't done much. Well, I guess he did something.

    Pretty good summary of the various investigations that include the former NYPD commissioner, the School Superintendent, the Sheriff, and various top aides to Adams.
