What the fuck are you talking about? You are about to outdo your primary election debacle. Please pace yourself.SuburbanFarmer wrote: ↑Fri Aug 17, 2018 7:01 pmI think some of the states go by county, but I could be wrong. If you want to use them in the overall tally though, you’d see counties taking on the shapes of representative districts pretty quickly.
I’d much rather see a straight-up popular vote anyway, and this is a step in that direction.
What if we re-designed the electoral to be counted by county instead of state?

I think they would anyway. You have to remember electoral college is partially based on population to begin with so any proposal based on county would have to be based on some popular dimension.The Conservative wrote: ↑Fri Aug 17, 2018 10:01 pmSo you’d rather see states like CA keep going to the Democrats due to three counties when the vast majority of CA is voting Republican?Okeefenokee wrote: ↑Fri Aug 17, 2018 7:04 pmRepeats democrat talking points endlessly, but is too chicken shit to admit what he is.

What's the impetus for this proposal? The electoral college is the most balanced thing you are going to get, any further fidgeting breaks it. Unless you want to go with the way Maine and Nebraska do it, which is probably what dirty dick meant, but syphilis is a hell of a disease.

Hillary won 33 counties in CA. So Trump won 25.
