What if they all of the sudden become republicans because now that they are legally here they don't want a bunch of i******s coming in and taking their jobs?

You seemed to have conveniently missed where I was going with the point of my last two posts to you.
There are 84 e*******l v**es between Cal and NY. 67 between Tx and Fla. Between the top four, look at the edge Cal and NY have.
All but two states are winner take all, no matter what the margin of victory is. Maybe that needs to change.

I thought the members of the e*******l college were already free to v**e differently from the winner of the popular v**e.
They are. One of the first things the Democrats did after the e******n but before the E*******l College v**e was to try to influence the E*******l College v**ers to all v**e for Hillary. It was in the news. Well, maybe not in the leftest news, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, etc.

I was only looking at the four largest states. But yes, in the top ten largest the GOP has the edge.

I went back and corrected the e*******l v**es according to the 2016 numbers, not 2010's. GOP gained six.

Believe it or not, Styxhexenhammer666 on YouTube gives the best polling analysis I've heard so far. He was spot on last e******n. Very perceptive and intuitive.

No, it makes my v**e a mere ritual.
The president then will be chosen by 560 people.
The ruling was made in favor of the kommiecrats, who want no e*******l college, but they were handed one of their own to manipulate as they can.

How does one come up with 560 e*******l v**es
The E*******l College consists of 538 e*****rs. A majority of 270 e*******l v**es is required to elect the President. Your state’s entitled allotment of e*****rs equals the number of members in its Congressional delegation: one for each member in the House of Representatives plus two for your Senators.

Basically that's where the process of meeting out e*****rial v**es are initiated,but if some one ask you a question as to how each states arrive at their number of e*****rial don't answer it like that,or they will deem you wrong.E*****rial v**es come about by the number of senators combine with the number of Representatives of each district in the states;for instance,Illinois as 18 districts ,that means 18 e*****rial v**es,combine with it's two senators,hence,twenty e*****riates for Illinois.

E*****rs are chosen by their party. Whichever party candidate gets the most popular v**es gets their e*****rs selected. This might be the most popular v**es throughout the state (which is the case in most states), or a region of the state, or a percentage of e*****rs selected from the list chosen by their party to match the percentage of v**es for that party's candidate. The e*****rs usually promise their party to v**e for their party's candidate, but there is no law requiring them to. But there are surely consequences from their party for being faithless. The point is the e*****rs are chosen by their party. Each party has their e*****rs. Depending on which party's candidate gets the most popular v**es, decides which party's e*****rs get to cast the v**es for their state.
