candidates would just campaign in CA, TX, NY, FL instead of PA, WI, MI, NC -- nm - mr mooch Nov 15, 10:28 4
- There are more Republicans in California than any other state. More Dems in Texas than any other state but California. -- nm - Reagen Nov 15, 10:44 1
  - (to be clear, for me this is an argument in favour of national popular vote) -- nm - Reagen Nov 15, 11:23
- I just don't understand why that would be. A campaign event in TX that can get you 2000 more votes is the same as an event in MI that gets you 2000 - Guigue Nov 15, 10:43 1
  - Texas has far more voters. A percent swing is worth a lot more bet votes. - Will Hunting Nov 15, 11:01
We don't have to, the 2000 election in Florida with hanging Chad's and when they finally finished it was Bush by 300 -- nm - zeitgeist Nov 15, 10:26
