Election Prediction Thread

I'm kind of on board with the idea of a "single transferable vote" where we vote with a preference 1-whatever and if our #1 vote getter is eliminated our vote goes to the next on our list. I could care less about our 2 party system, because a different way of voting would nullify that.

I like this idea. We need to break out of the two-party gridlock. Most parliamentary systems get to make up a government by agreement between parties big and/or little. You get to vote for your man who will do that deal to gain power for you.

I have rarely voted R or D, until recently. Now I am just so disgusted with Ds I stopped voting C or L or writing names like John Wayne on the ballot. I wouldn't vote for Jeb, though, like I didn't vote for Romney. Ever.

By contrast, Montana has the most populous Congressional district at close to 995,000, diluting their popular vote.

Any number you pick for the House of Representatives will see districts of unfair sizes (large or small) show up in less populous states.

Well, one or two more stars in Missoula will tip that over. So the house seats are rounded to the nearest 750K or whatever. But the Census counts illegals and non-citizens and they count in that calculation, which undermines the actual citizen voters in some States, giving other States with disproportionate numbers of non-citizens, like CA, more representatives.

Dems love this. Plus "community organizers" like Obama and a lot of other dems think non-citizens should have the right to vote, too. And they help them to do it.

Lying again...because you're a liar.
