North Carolina may adopt District Method for choosing electors

[12th Doctor]

Hmm. Interesting, is there any state the GOP could do this and have it be to their advantage?

California and PA are the two most obvious that come to mind.  Chances of passing in either are pretty slim, though.

BTW... this thing is rigged from the start by the fact that, by Federal Law, North Carolina is obligated to have at least two districts that are majoritivly black.  As do Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi.  I think Tennesse only needs to have one.

You realize that actually benefits Republicans right?

Think about it, the split in this state for Democrats to Republicans for whites is maybe 45/55. The split in Democrats to Republicans for blacks is maybe 90/10. So what majority-minority districts do is it takes a whole bunch of Democrats, puts them in one district where they then have supermajorities and the Republicans are pretty much a third party, while all the surrounding districts are Republican cause a good number of the Democrats they would have if things were not gerrymandered are not in their district.

In Congressional Races, yeah.  And it hurts blacks because it acctually diminishes their political power.  All in the name of "civil rights".

If North Carolina goes to this method, though, it doesn't benefit the GOP at all.  That's just 2 more EV's the Democrats get every time.
