Bush/Cheney 484
Kennedy/Rangel 54

Bush would not win that big. Teddy is actually liked by half of the country.

More like 40-42% of the country

Hehe

But really, Bush is more moderate, and would come across as more moderate.  Bush would win 57-42% or so.  Nader a non-factor.

Nebraska and Maine have decided that whoever wins the total popular vote in that state gets the two electoral votes that derive from the states senators, and the winner of each congressional district gets the electoral votes that derive from that district's congressman.  So, by winning, say, Maine, youe don't necessarily get all 4 EC votes.

Imagine in California allocated their EV's like that.  Scary.

If every state had given 2 for its popular vote and the rest per congressional district, would the result have been different? Surely Gore would have taken some districts round Dallas, Houston, Miami, Cleveland etc?

We did something about what would have happened in the EV's were allocatyed by CD.  Plus, Bush won 9 more states, so he would get an 18 EV bonus...

Well if thats the case, Ill use that post to pose the purely rhetorical question: Why pick such a strange number of posts for a classification boundary?!

Now you're a Junior Member...

I don't know..50 makes more sense than 51
