2018-07-02 23:44:54 UTC

2018-07-02 23:45:00 UTC  

space force power armor should have holographic adaptive projectors so each face adapts to look like whatever is behind it. Adaptive camoflague

2018-07-02 23:45:25 UTC  

@Fitzydog do the states. In the electoral college. Give partial points. Or winner takes all?

2018-07-02 23:45:36 UTC  

depends

2018-07-02 23:45:42 UTC  

<:GWnanamiWhenLifeGetsAtYou:398860996535386126> ffs

2018-07-02 23:45:44 UTC  

most states are winner take all electorial votes. a few split them

2018-07-02 23:46:02 UTC  

The delegates **DO NOT** have to vote for the popular choice

2018-07-02 23:46:09 UTC  

@Kollins but how could they see how free the trump marines are if they are invisible, for a recon unit sure, but not the grunt armour

2018-07-02 23:46:12 UTC  

they are called "Faithless Electors"

2018-07-02 23:46:37 UTC  

the delegates are not by law required to vote for their winners, but they almost always do

2018-07-02 23:46:39 UTC  

but nearly all of the time, they vote who ever won

2018-07-02 23:46:47 UTC  

~~My suffering can scarcely be described in words~~

2018-07-02 23:47:09 UTC  

Am I this bad at getting a straight answer from people <:GWnanamiWhenLifeGetsAtYou:398860996535386126>

2018-07-02 23:47:15 UTC  

It's essentially the popular vote of each state, filtered through the electorate

2018-07-02 23:47:34 UTC  

@Fitzydog F i n a l l y

2018-07-02 23:47:43 UTC  

FPTP confirmed

2018-07-02 23:47:49 UTC  

<:GWnanamiWhenLifeGetsAtYou:398860996535386126>

2018-07-02 23:47:52 UTC  

@Ruggwain If you read the link I sent, you would have read that

2018-07-02 23:47:58 UTC  

Electorial College = Representative Republic. The US is NOT a Democracy.

2018-07-02 23:48:18 UTC  

@Ruggwain It's FPTP by default, because there's no law governing it

2018-07-02 23:48:30 UTC  

It's fptp either way

2018-07-02 23:48:37 UTC  

There's literally nothing the states can do

2018-07-02 23:48:44 UTC  

To prevent the presidential election

2018-07-02 23:48:47 UTC  

From being fptp

2018-07-02 23:48:55 UTC  

@Ruggwain They can change their own state voting laws

2018-07-02 23:48:58 UTC  

They can only alter their own elections and votes

2018-07-02 23:49:03 UTC  

@Fitzydog exactly

2018-07-02 23:49:14 UTC  

woomp woomp @Ruggwain

2018-07-02 23:49:36 UTC  

So it's FPTP

2018-07-02 23:49:47 UTC  

I award @Deleted User and @Ruggwain both ZERO points, cause you're both technically right.

2018-07-02 23:49:58 UTC  

@Fitzydog the best kind of right

2018-07-02 23:50:52 UTC  

BUUUTT, since Maine and Nebraska are propertional, the Preseidential election is technically a mixed-system vote.

2018-07-02 23:50:54 UTC  

Only because he was talking about something entirely different

2018-07-02 23:51:02 UTC  

It's not though

2018-07-02 23:51:13 UTC  

Maine and nebraska still have a winner takes all end result

2018-07-02 23:51:25 UTC  

They don't split up their electoral college points do they <:GWnanamiWhenLifeGetsAtYou:398860996535386126>

2018-07-02 23:51:28 UTC  

🤦

2018-07-02 23:51:44 UTC  

It's **District by district**

2018-07-02 23:51:46 UTC  

FPTP is a European concept? Most states have a winner takes all electorial college. Call it whatever you want, it's a Representative Republic where Commiefornia can't impose their politics on the whole union just because they have the people to win in a pure Democracy.
