Do you think in the short term it would be advantageous for these swing states to allocate their electoral votes on a district by district basis?
At least the gop would get some electoral votes that way. In 2024, I don’t see how a gop presidential candidate can win if they lose all the electoral votes in AZ, MI, and PA. Like your post says, the large cities will find enough votes and with all 3 having dem governors (AZ pending but i’m not hopeful), there won’t be one election law changed that benefits the gop.
Changing to a district by district basis could be framed to be similar to the “popular” vote the dems always scream for so they might actually consider passing it. In reality, passing that would lessen the importance of cheating in the big cities.
Funnily enough I've been using the term leviathan to describe the whole cultural war we have to fight to turn everything around. It's going to take years to turn this leviathan around, as it took years to get us here.....
I think Aristotle (and perhaps Socrates as well?) mention that there is a certain size for a city that is good – the rationale being that everyone in the city should be in community with a significant fraction of the population. We certainly seem to have outgrown it here and are harvesting the result.
It seems to me states are run by majority run. From what I remember of history it’s the exact reason smaller states would not support the union in the beginning and the reason for the electoral college. In CA we are ruled by 2-3 big cities. We need to find a way to go to the same electoral college way in the states with the counties having a certain number of votes based on their popular vote instead of popular vote state wide. That way the rural places aren’t ruled by the big cities. Just a thought
Notice how the Democrats have stopped talking about getting rid of the Electoral College ?? They have now weaponized it against the republic. You corrupt a few big cities in a few red or reddish states, and BINGO, you get the state's entire slate of EC votes. The EC was a grave error by the founders. I can demonstrate mathematically why a voter in WY or MT shouldn't care about his vote not "counting" without the EC in place. Hogwash. At the very least, al states should adopt what Maine and Nebraska do......one EC vote for each House seat won, and the two Senate EC votes to the winner of the state. Better yet, get rid of the EC. It would make it much, much harder to steal a national election. Had the founders seen how easy it would become for candidates (and voters and news and ideas) to communicate & travel across state lines, they never would have come up with the EC, in my opinion.
Rural areas have to separate from the cities or else forever be governed by people who don't share their values or way of life. One way to do this is to redraw state lines to group more like-minded people together. We're trying to do that with Greater Idaho and rural communities all over the country should do the same.
Well analyzed, dissecting what the Democrats did as an after-action analysis. Just like they (obviously) performed a "war college" like strategy analyzing electoral areas of vulnerability, and then executed to build and then exploit those vulnerabilities.
It is telling - given the grapevine in D.C. and movement of elections "consultants" among and between parties -- that the "experts" within the GOP / RNC had to know this fraud infrastructure was being erected as it was occurring. And did nothing.
That tells me that this was all a UniParty-sanctioned operation.
Exactly on target. All are hot beds of gang activities, law breakers, many with idiot DAs like Dallas where they won't even file on a shop lifter unless the theft is more than 650 dollars or so (that's a lot of baby diapers). I read recently that stores are suffering something like 64 Billion total in shop-lifting loss. And to say nothing of the deep corruption in voting and ballot activities.
Oregon has voted blue because of 4 of the largest counties which is more populated than all the remaining counties. However we absolutely believe their has been selected officials. All Soros backed infiltrations.
Keep up the great work Seth! Another spot on analysis. Thanks!

Smaller precincts will allow us to return to hand counting that can be completed by midnight.
I am old enough to remember that is the way it used to be, before machines.

They look void of life.
