Hey guys! We'll be closing this thread shortly, but we will make an American politics megathread where we can continue the discussions in here.

The new thread can be found here: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=383301

Actually the retardation of the electoral college is that Wymoing which has 3 electoral votes counts as ~170k people per vote. Where as California/New York/Florida each electoral vote is roungly ~500k people. So one vote in Wyoming is worth about ~4 New York votes.

Your argument would be relevant if the electoral college contradicted the popular vote. That has only occurred once in the last 100 years, so it's largely irrelevant.


Just because they've matched nearly every time doesn't mean that he's wrong. Sure it may not be as relevant as other electoral college problems, but I don't see why it can't be brought up as yet another problem (although I wouldn't say "THE" central problem, as he may have implied).

lol, my county has Mitt winning, literally 70% to 30%. This is why voting is a waste of time here.

Bill O'Reilly was actually surprisingly unbiased in his prediction, seems like he is staying realistic.

Even if it never happened, the fact that ever could happen is a joke, and the fact that it actually happened once was a nightmare.


fun fact, its happened 4 times in american history!

Do you mean state?

That's why you vote third party in those states.

I sent in an absentee ballot but yeah, I'm in Alabama. If literally every apathetic person in Alabama voted Obama, Romney would still win the state. Kinda lame but that's the electoral college for you.
