minus-squaresomething_random_tho@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 months agoI hate how the votes of people from 47/50 states have so much less value. What a terrible system.
minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·2 months agoNot that they have less value, it’s that they have an expected value. The entire west coast votes Democratic, that’s just a given. The entire south votes Republican, that’s also a given. So it comes down to the persuadable states.
minus-squareNollij@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoGeorgia would beg to differ. They went blue last time, and are at a dead heat. Florida would like you to wrestle gator before you can vote, just for the chaos.
minus-squarejordanlund@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·edit-22 months agoGeorgia was an aberration last time. The only reason they went blue was because of increased vote by mail making voting more accessible, that’s not in the cards this time. Currently Trump +3 over Biden and +10 over Harris.
