That is only true in your convoluted fantasy, MORON!
I know how the system is set up now and it is unfair.
Obama micro-targeted the populated area's alone in state's like Ohio and won the State.
A candidate should not be able to neglect the rural areas within a State and win the State.
This is not fair, as the population centers contain most all of the Blacks, Hispanics, and illegal aliens who are mostly all DemocRATS allowed to vote by crooked DemocRATS.
Ohio is almost all red, save for the population centers that were blue.

Ohio's electoral votes should have been split between the candidates.
If a State is mostly red, it should be giving most of electoral votes to the Republicans.
We need a new Electoral system.
We must create districts within a State that can award a States current electoral votes to the person that wins that district.
All States need to be of equal importance.
Each state decides for itself how electors are chosen. Ever hear of states' rights?

<quoted text>The election on Tuesday proved that there are over 50 million idiots in the United States willing to vote for an idiot. Election day polling concluded that priorities were: 1.Economy/employment 2.Honesty/integrity. 3.Change in government. 4.Bipartisanship. 5. Cut debt/spending. Romney should have won by a landslide. 1.Obama'a economy is worst than terrible/unemployment is much higher than predicted and three percent higher than Obama promised in 2008. 2.Obama can;s open his mounth with out telling a lie.-- Monday's papers should have had the head line "Obama Lies". 3.If our country needs change,why are people voting for more of the same garbage we had for the last four years,'double down'. 4.Obama has proven for four years that he will not work with Congress and has ignored the values,principles and beliefs of over half the country. 5.Obama increased the debt by over 6 trillion dollars his first four years and intends to increase the debt more than and additional 6 trillion dollars during his next four years. Our country deserves better.
And Romney never lies because you can find a clip of him saying anything you want him to say. ROFLMAO! Too bad for you, Romney and all of his supporters there aren't enough idiots in this country to believe Republican lies. The smart people know who created the problems in the economy and they know who will fix it. A Democrat, just like the last time! The only thing Republicans are good for is creating large debt and destroying the economy, and then whining that the Democrats aren't fixing it fast enough.

It has been tried before but the United States Supreme Court has held it be unconstitutional in Reynolds v. Sims, 377 US 533 (1964) in which Chief Justice Warren wrote:

Legislators represent people, not trees or acres. Legislators are elected by voters, not farms or cities or economic interests. As long as ours is a representative form of government, and our legislatures are those instruments of government elected directly by and directly representative of the people, the right to elect legislators in a free and unimpaired fashion is a bedrock of our political system. It could hardly be gainsaid that a constitutional claim had been asserted by an allegation that certain otherwise qualified voters had been entirely prohibited from voting for members of their state legislature. And, if a State should provide that the votes of citizens in one part of the State should be given two times, or five times, or 10 times the weight of votes of citizens in another part of the State, it could hardly be contended that the right to vote of those residing in the disfavored areas had not been effectively diluted. It would appear extraordinary to suggest that a State could be constitutionally permitted to enact a law providing that certain of the State's voters could vote two, five, or 10 times for their legislative representatives, while voters living elsewhere could vote only once. And it is inconceivable that a state law to the effect that, in counting votes for legislators, the votes of citizens in one part of the State would be multiplied by two, five, or 10, while the votes of persons in another area would be counted only at face value, could be constitutionally sustainable.

There always is.
I expect that to be the case in both 2014 and 2016.
California will vote for a Republican President after 4 more years of Obama.
You are high or stupid.

President Barack Hussein Obama won the popular vote by a huge margin. Democrats were voted in at all levels.

Well, Tootsie, that wouldn't be representative democracy. Why do you hate the republican for of government now that birfoons and cons have been soundly rebuked?

You're not learning a lesson from Tuesdays lost, and the GOP will be doomed to fail miserably -- again -- if you don't catch on fast.

Time to leave politics to the people who understand it, Tootsie.

If Republicans had won 40% of the vote?
If that had happened, it would have been an entirely different Republican Party and all other things would not be equal. The map of swing states might have been very different than it was in the past two presidential elections. It would have been a Republican party that reached out to minorities and moderate independents. That would have had much greater effect than a mere 1% in swing states. Keep looking through your tunnel vision glasses and 2016 will be another blue victory.

Herewith Guru prediction Nov 4. LoL. Guru, eh? Some guru. And, the "unguruiest" prediction of all as it's Romny who took the early lead, 33 electoral vote to 3. Thereafter, poor man never knew what hit him. Lost his own state in a Dem lanslide. Explanation for that : My wife had it. She said that the Mass population knew him best of all, is why. Ha ha. Then "Moe" Ryan also lost his own state. What a cheeze head.
