False.
If you gerrymander around areas that have a large supply of convicted felons or people under 18 then its still possible to lose by popular and win by electoral within a state.

No. It's not. All but two states award EC totally to the popular vote winner.

 

[flexy]

No he hasn't. The three left counties will kill him. Watch.

I'm sorry but you are incorrect. In only 2 states is the electoral vote determined by who wins each house district (neb and maine). In all the other states the electoral vote is determined solely by the total popular vote across the state, just like how senators are elected. Gerrymandering allows you to shift the balance in the house but does not impact senate or presidential races.

Looks like Florida is going Trump?

 

[shortylickens]

Oh, I forgot to mention this: If anyone cares, Tom Brokaw is on NBC right now with Lester Holt. Havent seen Tom in many years.

Does anybody know where the Samantha Bee live coverage is supposed to exist? I cannot find it.

 

[Ns1]

Broward gonna need to pick up the slack or something.


so if Trump takes FL do I commit seppuku then, or is there still hope?

 

[PottedMeat]

Trump has Florida.

could you put money on which way individual states go?

 

[Starbuck1975]

It appear Trump is doing better than Romney in flipping counties red, but he may not have enough to overcome population centers

 

[flexy]

Fl stuck at 91% for like...half an hour now...

 

[HamburgerBoy]

Gaps seem to be closing in both NC and VA.

 

[StinkyPinky]

FL is close as all heck. Definitely a recount coming up if Clinton wins because of it.

The vote tabulators run Win 10.

 

[flexy]

Funny thing...all this detailed talk...yet it's all sorta irrelevant until everything's counted.

Prediction: FL will get a huge junk of votes in "any time soon" and then it will flip. But will be close.

Where are you seeing that? Sites I'm on have it more like 74% at 8:45pm EST

Hillary only needs to win one of the battleground states. That's if she keeps the rest of the states she's supposed to win. Trump on the other hand needs to win most or all of the battle ground states.

It's still way to early to tell who will be the next POTUS. Obama and Mitch were close the last time I remember. Then Obama pulled away.

 

[Pardus]

Giant Douche vs. Turd Sandwich

 

[RichUK]

could you put money on which way individual states go?

Nope. Just a win for Hillary or Trump through the bookies I used.

Go Trump!
