If you vote for Joe Biden you aren’t rational

[alang1216]

Just know that the EC is more skewed today than in the days of George Washington.

More skewed? Do any of you idiot leftists who rail against the "unfair" electoral college even realize it is skewed IN YOUR FUCKING FAVOR? The problem is the MASSIVE population disparity between states like CA and NEW YORK (Blue states) with states like Wyoming and Montana. The solution is to chop CA up into TWO states.

Want to see how skewed it is? Here is the EC weighting of the states:

Voting weight across states
To find the relative weight of a vote in each state, I divided each state’s electoral votes by the total number of ballots cast, and then divided again by the fraction of an electoral college vote accorded the average American voter. Battleground states are listed in bold italics.

It's really amazing, isn't it? Like trying to have a conversation with 5 year olds. The national election of a president is 50 smaller STATE elections, and the weighting of each is aligned appropriately so that each state gets representation and a voice in electing POTUS so that no one state or a few can control it over the wishes of others and POTUS will truely represent a WIDE demographic of the states, and how one state is weghted has no effect on the outcome of another as its the outcome at the STATE level that matters. It's been that way for something like 244 years, its being explained here ad neaseum until people's ears are bleeding, yet these pinheads just do not get it, are apparently too dumb and lazy to STUDY it, and constantly go right back to arguing as though it were one big popular vote election instead of 50 states, and were somehow getting cheated or robbed by how another state weighs their votes, even when it's actually weighted in their favor.

No flaw in my logic since the number of EC votes is not tightly tied to the population of the state. I understand we live in a republic and not a democracy and I'm not whining about it being 'unfair', I'm just noting that we live in a different country then the Founding Fathers and what doesn't evolve goes extinct.

I think recent history has shown that the EC is giving us presidents elected by a minority of the electorate and I don't see that as a good thing for the country.

Man has complained about governance since there was governance. Projections of gloom and doom are nothing new. You complain because it's not YOUR guy. If it were YOUR guy, he could do no wrong.

 

[Rev.Hellh0und]

TDS strong in this one is.

Your side has spent months just helplessly weeping at the awful liberals who keep embarrassing you with facts and reason and morality.

As a result, you're getting massacred in the polls.

Maybe you should switch tactics. But only if you think winning is more important than proclaiming your victimhood to the world. I know that's a tough choice for professional victims, but think about it.

Didn't you people learn your lesson last time about trusting polls?

No one gets out of here alive. Deal with it. As for doom being the reality, the best you can hope for is to suffer without complaint. I'll be celebrating my sacrifices and learning the lessons that the tests of life bring me.

But putting that aside, you think who gets elected president matters? You are a fool.
