In Maine and Nebraska, the votes are split between congressional district with two votes going to the winner of the state. However, such a split has never occurred. In order to become president elect, the candidate must receive 270 electoral votes from the meeting of the Electoral College on Dec. 18. Currently, many are worried that the electors will be unable to vote by Dec. 18 because of the controversy in Florida. The ballots and recounts are now a hot topic and a highly partisan issue.
Voting day is over.
The Democrats should just accept how it is. The election has not only raised the question of new, clearer ballots but also the process itself. The Electoral College was originally established as a way for small states to have an impact on the election. I think we should use the popular vote. Close elections like this have happened before.
