Well, let's hope Romney takes Pennsylvania, too, so we don't have to worry about this. *NM*

I prefer 1 EV per house district, with 2 EVs going to state winners

why would there need to be a nation-wide recount? don't the states keep their own tallies?

I like that idea, though I have long felt Larrys idea of using Congressional Districts is better.
