8 dems switched

2019-01-05 20:06:46 UTC  

2 reps

2019-01-05 20:06:52 UTC  

So theres your argument out of the window

2019-01-05 20:06:56 UTC  

That was a record high

2019-01-05 20:07:07 UTC  

It's usually much lower

2019-01-05 20:07:14 UTC  

Infact it's happened in many elections

2019-01-05 20:07:16 UTC  

does not matter

2019-01-05 20:07:28 UTC  

The fact is there is no law saying that

2019-01-05 20:07:32 UTC  

and they have

2019-01-05 20:07:48 UTC  

You are forgetting that the minority can be dumb

2019-01-05 20:08:03 UTC  

And that the electors can have the same views as the radical candidates

2019-01-05 20:08:35 UTC  

Possibly, but again it's better than nothing

2019-01-05 20:09:16 UTC  

I think it works tbh

2019-01-05 20:09:32 UTC  

Thats why 8 dems switched

2019-01-05 20:11:07 UTC  

What about the winner takes all system

2019-01-05 20:11:39 UTC  

California had the third highest numbers of republican voters among states

2019-01-05 20:11:49 UTC  

And what did their votes do?

2019-01-05 20:12:04 UTC  

Nothing

2019-01-05 20:12:05 UTC  

thats fine

2019-01-05 20:12:08 UTC  

Why?

2019-01-05 20:12:15 UTC  

Because it's winner takes all

2019-01-05 20:12:17 UTC  

which I'm fine with

2019-01-05 20:12:44 UTC  

Thats basically not being able to vote

2019-01-05 20:12:57 UTC  

Why should somebody's vote not count because of their location?

2019-01-05 20:13:31 UTC  

No you do vote

2019-01-05 20:13:32 UTC  

but you lose

2019-01-05 20:13:47 UTC  

It won't make a difference

2019-01-05 20:13:51 UTC  

If you vote or not

2019-01-05 20:14:00 UTC  

California would still be blue

2019-01-05 20:14:05 UTC  

You never know

2019-01-05 20:14:10 UTC  

And 55 votes would still go to the democrats

2019-01-05 20:14:13 UTC  

But thats not an argument for not voting

2019-01-05 20:14:31 UTC  

Just because "you don't have a chance" doesn't mean we should socialise loses

2019-01-05 20:14:37 UTC  

Reward winners punish losers

2019-01-05 20:16:21 UTC  

So the votes of millions shouldn't be counted because of "winners and losers"?

2019-01-05 20:16:40 UTC  

They are counted

2019-01-05 20:16:44 UTC  

but not enough as the other team

2019-01-05 20:16:46 UTC  

so they lose

2019-01-05 20:16:46 UTC  

They're not in the end

2019-01-05 20:16:56 UTC  

they are counted

2019-01-05 20:16:58 UTC  

they just don't win
