The 2016 United States Presidential Election

NoNukes asks: Yeah. Already done. It's called your Social Security card.

Using my new At Large System (see Message 111) for Massachusetts:

%    Representatives
Total votes, 2014:    2186827  100.00%       9.00       9
Democrat              1667595   76.25%       6.86       7
Republican*            519331   23.75%       2.14       2

THEREFORE:Highest 7 Dem finishers are in
Highest 2 Rep finishers are inCurrently the Dems have ALL 9 seats, hence GUILTY of gerrymandering!===================================================================
* I could not find Independent and Libertarian and Green votes, so I lumped them all in Republican votes.from a District spreadsheet i made

NoNukes writes: No, I don't believe the states will let that happen. I can see George Wallace on the steps right now."What we got here is the Napoleonic Code! What the wife gets, the husband gets!"

nwr asks, hypothetically: Well, sure - dishonesty will be able find a way into everything. Why is this expected to be a worse problem than what's going on now?Edited by xongsmith, : dash

Regarding voter fraud/suppression it looks like fraud happened in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida and Wisconsin where the exit polling and reported counting differed by too large an amount. In every one of these cases Clinton should have won and thus garnered 305 EC votes. Perhaps Trump was right - it was rigged, but for himself:2016 Presidential Election Table – TDMS|RESEARCH

Coyote asks: Actually they are too stupid to do this at the scale the GOP is doing it. LOL

Mod argues: I think this was that brief period, with Al Franken finally allowed to take his seat and Ted Kennedy still alive, that the Dems had a filibuster-proof congress.Sadly, Ted did die soon and the stooge that replaced him had no seniority. Then Massachusetts rejected Martha Coakley for the truck driver and the Republicans now could filibuster anything.Obama was naive and thought the Repugnants might meet him half way. But the wheeling and dealing continued and the insurance company money kept pouring in. They were lucky to get anything at all from the assholes in the GOP.

What if every state did their Electoral College the way that Maine & Nebraska do?
Or even going so far as to awarding fractional electors by proportional share to avoid round-off errors for the tiny states?I made a spreadsheet from 2016 United States presidential election - Wikipedia and uploaded it to http://xongsmith.webs.com/vote2016.html.The bottom line came out

total        Clinton       Trump     Johnson     Stein    McMullin    others
538 	    256.5525     250.0876    18.1131    5.8222     3.1995     4.2325

What does this mean? Since no one got more than 269.0, it would have been thrown to the House of Representatives, who probably would have picked Trump anyway.Oh well.
