It looks like Biden has won the vote in Georgia following the recount. However I was struck by the fact that trump picked up nearly 50% of the vote in that state and just fell short by a few votes.
And for that, he picks up zero votes in the electoral college.
Now I am no fan of trump but that just seems a very unhealthy state of affairs. Over 2 million Georgian voters need not have bothered to vote and that isnt good for democracy in the long run.
I know that it cuts both ways but there must be a better way of doing this. One that actually reflects the number of votes cast.
