It's decided by the House - each state has ONE delegate - one state is independent - there are 26 red states and 23 blue - Trump would be voted in

You might be the first person I saw that understands this. Most think every member has one vote

Once again. It is NOT the current congress that decides if their is a tie. It's the incoming congress.

Hell no it aint over - the dems are already planning to count votes for weeks after 11/3

I don't remember a presidential election ever in which votes were stopped being counted at midnight on 11/3.

If you are a Trump Backer, wouldnt you want a blowout just to rub it in a little more?

I know many people on here say its going to be a "landslide". For the lovers, I would think that a landslide would be the icing on the cake?

I believe the house would choose the winner. not the vp. So in this specific scenario​ Biden wins.

Not sure why you would think a person on the ticket would choose the winner.

edit: made a quick google search. Senate would choose vp. So it would be biden/pence.

Just so you know, you're wrong here. The entire House does not select the President under a tie scenario.

The House does not vote by all of its members, they vote by state delegation. And as of right now, the Republicans have the edge in that regards, 26 to 23. 1 is a tie at the moment, split right down the middle.

Just so you know, you are incorrect. The current congress has absolutely nothing to do with deciding the president. The president would be decided by the members of the incoming congress.

I have now stated this numerous times in this thread. Is this a reading comprehension problem?

Haha, are you a fucking retard? I said as of now. I know very well that the new congress state delegates would decide the election. You clearly stated the House would vote, as in every House member would get a vote. Because the democrats will control the house majority after the end of this election almost undoubtedly. They are NOT guaranteed to control the state delegate majority though. It's unlikely they will, actually. I corrected you. Now you're raging out because I corrected you.

Be better dude. You are humiliating yourself. I had a little bit of respect for you until now, but now it seems like you're just a leftist retard sitting around shitting into your wife's panties in your recliner as she works for a living.

Since you're now claiming that you weren't wrong about this, does that mean you are GUARANTEEING that the Democrats will control Congress state delegate majority?

Want to put $5000 on that? Post up only.

Yes. If biden goes 269-269 meaning he flipped states that the congress would stay the same. Got it.

You didn't know and that's why you keep listing the states in the current congress.

But i truly don't care. LMK when you even want to put $100 on Trump winning. But i know, you want me to bet you $10,000 on your occupation. :)

How about we do all 3?

$100 on Trump at +180
$10,000 on my occupation
$5,000 on who controls Congress state delegate majority?

You would have had an easier time just admitting you were wrong about Congress having a simple majority vote on who was President.

But you're a spineless bitch so you couldn't possibly admit you're wrong and that others know more than you. :):)

I am listing the current majority (26 to 23) for Republicans because those numbers are relevant to forecasting what is going to happen in 2020 you drooling fool.

In my opinion since I am Canadian I would love to see a tie and let the House/Congress decide on the President

Personally I don't think it would end in a tie for all the computer simulations that I have tried on 270towin (about 100) and those simulations are slightly leaning towards Joe Biden/Democrats

You clearly haven't ever taken a course on contract law. lol.

I offered, you declined my entire offer and just counter offered. I realize now I'm probably dealing with someone who is uneducated if you truly believe you can take 1/3rd of an offer and accept it and have it be a valid acceptance.

Hell no it aint over - the dems are already planning to count votes for weeks after 11/3

Votes are never finalized in any state until mid to late November

That is by law and the reason why the designated electors do not convene in DC until second week of December

The illusion that the "winner is announced late night Tuesday" is just that. Observers (journalists and TV media) do nothing more than project the winner based on what is usually between 80-90% of votes being accurately tabulated by Wednesday morning. Such projections are ordinarily right on target because any tally that shows 4 to 5 points margin at 90% reporting will not be swerved back by the final 10% which are codified in the days and couple weeks following Election Day

I realize you already know all this but just one time I wanted to enter it into the record here at the good ol' Rx to thus refute the absurd claims from Tiny and FOXnews that "the vote count must be complete by midnight!!"

I just hope that the Rupubs and going to cheat just as hard as the Socialists..We could end up with a scenario in some states with more votes being cast then there are registered voters

That of course has never happened but go ahead and imagine it

Any form of *cheating* that can truly be exploited will of course be employed in equal measure by both GOP and Dems.

Fortunately the past 30 years of extremely detailed investigation from all sides of American politics demonstrates that any level of "vote fraud" is so minute that neither side honestly fears it

The fears in recent years only percolate among people who watch FOXnews "journalists" who insist that milllions of votes are fraudulent

Enjoy your paranoia.....It will prove weak solace for any post-election bitterness you might feel

I want a tie, then watch all the astonished faces when they realize each state gets one vote in the house and Nancy decides NOTHING

Butt watching people cry for two months would be really cool

Correct

It is an absurd proclamation

Every state - by law - requires a minimum of two weeks and some up to 30 days to deliver a truly accurate vote count. Most notable *late* incoming votes are from the several hundred thousand U.S. military and federal employees deployed overseas whose ballots are scored as legitimate provided they have a legal postmark of Election Day or earlier

Those votes continue to arrive legally in all 51 U.S. voting jurisdictions for days and sometimes a week or more following election day.

They are many, but when broken down within 51 jurisdictions they will rarely create an alternate outcome to that seen on Wed/Thur. Nonetheless they must be counted to meet legal voting parameters nationwide and are just one example of why demanding "all votes be counted by midnight Tuesday" is an infantile demand only offered by people utterly ignorant of United States election law.....people like President Tiny being the most visible demo
