Sadly that's not always a strictly pedantic point. Even besides Bush v. Gore, it also has led to the concept of "Battleground States" which I find abhorrent to a proper republic.
- jlgreco 13y agoVery true. The "pedantic" is misleading.
- baddox 13y agoYou're always going to have "battleground regions" unless you can guarantee a uniform population density and uniform distribution of political tendencies across the entire nation.
- nitrogen 13y agoBattleground regions aren't as big of a deal when a 1% change in the popular vote of a state no longer results in a 100% change in the electoral vote.
