"Electoral College" Results So Far: Obama - 179, Clinton - 156

[thevoiceofreason]

This excludes Florida and Michigan. I know, I know, go ahead and post your rejoinders that they should be added. I didn't include them because I feel their elections violated the Constitution -- there was no free speech.

Also not included, New Mexico's 5 electoral votes.

2. I think tomorrow is the deadline

In their defense, they did say they would wait and announce the final tally once, not piecemeal.

4. Oy.

12. Some well placed Clinton supporters tried to steal the election, got caught will ballot boxes

And who knows what is happening now?

The United Nations should have to run the New Mexico elections. Cheating in the vote counting is as New Mexico as Roswell.

3. But Obama's states don't matter

We only care about the Dukakis states!

You have made a weird assumption.

8. I saw someone speculate HRC would lead if it was winner take all

So, I did this little exercise for grins. AAnd, of course, I have these 3 posts available and burning a hole in my pocket.

13. How is "winner take all" related to the electoral college? n/t

15. Electoral college is winner take all

I know delegates are a completely different concept -- I was just having fun blending the counting approaches in response to a post I had seen earlier that was speculating it would go the other way.

6. Are NMs delegates split or winner take all? Either way, I 'm assuming not much change in count when

they are tallied. Edited to add: Nevermind.. thought the OP was tallying delegates.

7. Democrats have no winner-take-all primaries.

[K Gardner]

10. Thanks, I thought that was the case :-)

16. We can't stand to see anybody lose.

9. electoral votes are irrelevent in the primaries.

any assumptions based on 'electoral college' votes are invalid. They are based on nothing.

14. Looks like someone has too much time on their hands and

not enough common sense.
