re: #111 Stormageddon, Dark Lord of All
(Do you think Reagan should have gotten 525 EVs? Or HW Bush win 426? Does that mean the Republicans have an inherent EC advantage?) Nope. Neither does Obama winning 332.
I’ve heard this argument a lot, that basically the last thirty plus years of the nation’s evolving demographics are somehow irrelevant and that these results don’t indicate a pretty obvious trend line. It could just as easily be rephrased, “yeah if the Republicans can somehow take California and Illinois they’re probably going to win or something.”
