Place your bets here - Electoral College and Senate

I've consistently advocated no immigration restrictions on good looking Latinas. We need all the Cuban, Colombian and Venezuelan strippers we can get. But that's correct, because I don't think Colombian donkeys are attractive, I wouldn't allow you to bring one in just for the hell of it. However you could probably hire her and bring her over with my very liberal H-1B visa policy. You'd just need to show there's a shortage of American donkeys, or she's more skilled in whatever it is that she does than your average American donkey. Originally Posted by Tiny

No shortage here. Look at Dixie's images.

start at no toss up state and work from there. I got that on first try. the result surprised me.

this model presumes winner take all vote.

I should note there is a fly in this.

there are a number of states that allow for proportional electoral votes as a result of the states popular vote. there can be split votes in some states besides Nebraska and Maine which are decided by district votes. don't know which ones are those.

the map calculator doesn't address this. none of them do that I'm aware of.

it appears that 48 states are on the "winner take all" system.

there may have been some states who were on the proportional system, they appeared to have changed rules some time ago which is typical for many states deciding how to run the presidential election.

tiny, I didn't find what I was looking for, but this is for you.

your fav candidate is mentioned in the article. He's a spoiler. lol

Maine and Nebraska! Had to look it up as I thought Maine was the only one.

I predict a very tight election!

Could these two proportional electorate States actually be the keys to winning the Presidency?
It very well could decide the election!

Interesting, thanks Dilbert. Yeah, that would have been great, if Johnson's electors had been the kingmakers. I'm kind of confused why the electoral percentages using that method don't more closely match the popular vote percentages. Maybe rounding?
