The 2020 American election

[ArMaP]

No, more population gets you more votes. Example: Georgia has 16 and Florida has 29.

"Electoral votes, out of 538, allocated to each state and the District of Columbia for presidential elections held in 2012, 2016 and 2020, based on congressional representation, which depends on population data from the 2010 Census."

OK.

Thanks for the explanation.

I can't believe what I'm seeing.  Trump told his supporters not to vote early or post their votes in.  Now he is acting surprised that most of those votes were for Biden.

No he said If you mail your vote in, show up to the polling station and check to see if they had posted it. If not then vote in person.

What would be the point in voting by mail?

States with larger populations would have a distinct advantage if it was a popular vote. Our system is designed to give states with a lower population a fighting chance. States, States, States!

Which neatly explains why the Marxist AK-47 demographic in Portland have been talking about "fixing," the electoral college. 



Marxist doctrine calls for having the majority within the cult, so that said majority can then be used to successfully bludgeon everyone else into compliance.

Because of Covid-19, Some Americans are lazy, and it's an easy way of stuffing the ballot box to appear a certain candidate has won. In a nutshell, it's called FRAUD!...

Only a certain candidate could do it?

In a nutshell, it's called FRAUD!...

Only if it happens.

No any candidate could.

And you obviously don't know anything about American politicians.

Maybe, maybe not, I never tested my knowledge on American politicians. But it's very likely that I would get a very low grade, as it's a topic I find boring, like a bad sitcom.

Good people turn bad when power is involved. That's why I always vote against someone who's been in power more than two terms. At lest locally.

Now we'll see if cancel culture can cancel a presidency. 100% effort from the lefties even as lawsuits are raging and some being won, the denial is still in full throttle on the runaway cancel culture engine.

What's that "cancel culture"?

I just ignore those people, so I didn't know it was a "thing".

WRONG opinion AKA "Thoughtcrime"
