Seems to more of a faith issue thatn anyhting else. There is no reason Romney can't win PA. He is within the margin off error on most polls and that is with polls weighted to the 2008 turn out. There is every reason to believe he will out preform the polls and no good reason to believe he won't. I was in southern PA two weeks ago and I saw pro-Romney signs and anti-Obama signs everywhere. The coal industry is spending huge amounts of money against Obama.
Could Ohio Kill the Electoral College?

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

I do not think even the GOPs massive PA vote suppression effort is enough to accomplish that.

It's not impossible. I roughly reversed engineered Silver's tipping point simulation...

Seems like everything is communism these days, even/especially things that are not.

A simple solution: proportional allocation of electors from each state with 15 votes or more.

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

If not for gerrymandering I would consider this the ideal solution.

But in that system, the small states would be bypassed completely

You mean even more than they already are (outside of the NH primaries)?

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

What if none of the states were close enough for a recount, but the country as a whole was?

i suppose at that point the Supreme Court would have every justification to hear the case....

What Legolas said; if we did it by national popular vote, recounts would need to be national.

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