re: #155 KGxvi

I vaguely recall some talk in 2000 that Florida was considering doing something similar (talk about a real constitutional crisis) if the recount wasn’t resolved before the electors had to vote. As fucking crazy as that election was, there were about 2000 scenarios where it could have been worse.

But your point about it getting people’s attention is also why I doubt the attempts to award electors either proportionally or by district will ever gain traction.

I note those plans are always contingent on someone else doing it first. I.e., the bills are generally written to be triggered only if enough OTHER states do the same.
