After the networks blew the call on Florida in 2000 they pulled back and waited longer for several cylces, but with the passage of time the buissness pressure to be first to call has overcame that caution.

His candidates are 99% likely to win the recount, because that's what happens in recounts. Why say this? If he wasn't such an ignorant, whiny baby, I'd take this as an indication that he knows something we don't and that maybe it really was a machine error in Broward that caused the under count. But one should never assume Trump knows something, he's just a dick.

Chilichimp posted:That literally did help the Republicans in 2016 with their base, so who knows? Maybe it gets people motivated for 2020. Amendment 4 in Florida to re-enfranchise felons won over 60% of the vote. Antigerrymandering iniatives passed overwhelmingly in Colorado, Michigan and Missouri, and last I saw was narrowly leading in Utah. It would seem that expanding democracy is more popular than people think.

Mississippi's population is 37 percent African-American. That's 10 percent higher than Alabama. That makes it significantly more favorable to the Dems than Alabama.

VitalSigns posted:No it had nothing to do with logistics, again governors and congressional reps etc were elected by popular vote, if they couldn't validate votes then they couldn't validate those elections either (nor the popular presidential elections that most states actually held to choose the slate of presidential electors anyway). Though a horrible man, with horrible policies, I don't think it is in any way fair to tar Jackson as a proto Trump since he was actually a good at being a general and politician, he was quite competent at carrying out his plans.

HootTheOwl posted:The electoral college exists because of the same compromises that caused us to have both a house of representatives and a senate: An inflated value on the purpose of states, a way for slave states to count their slaves and own them too, and protections for smaller states.
