The end results of this recent midterm are worse than 2020 in terms of permanent consequences.
I don't think anyone tuned into elections even knew about this horrific proposal.
The GOP's potential electoral path to 270 electoral votes in 2024 continues to shrink.
Based on Trump's final results in 2020: The GOP was only able to secure 232. They would need another 38 electoral votes.
MI is now just completely gone. That is 15 electoral votes lost.
The GOP candidate in 2024 likely doesn't have a great chance at winning PA after Shapiro became governor and Oz lost to Fetterman of all people by 4 points.
PA is 19 electoral votes.
AZ, WI and GA still looks very iffy. AZ is 11 electoral votes, GA is 16 electoral votes and WI is 10 electoral votes.
NV is a mass mail in ballot state so that will be a tough hurdle to cross. NV is 6 electoral votes.
NH is fucking hopeless. NH is 4 electoral votes.
Getting AZ, GA and WI in 2024 results in a 269-269 tie where the House decides the President.
Losing Michigan permanently hurts a lot.
Getting all of AZ, GA, WI and NV now looks to be the only feasible path for over 270 in 2024.
Yes, we knew about the proposal. Yes, we drove ourselves insane trying to explain it to our normie relatives. In the end, MI is determined by the metro area and Grand Rapids to a lesser extent.
If GR sides with the rural areas, the vote can outweigh the metro. But that doesn't happen often.
