RE:"The obvious way to represent all voters was to split the electors, but that would have made Bush lost. So instead, they chose to disenfranchise half the voters and accomplish their real agenda- to put a Republican in the White House"

I don't think that's the way the law works. Only Nebraska can split electors and they haven't done it lately.

I don't like the idea of circumventing the voters as much as you do. That's what happening all around. This is not good. Regardless of who wins the state, I think it should be based on some vote count...machine, recount, hand recount, something.
At this point I still hoping for a resolution where the electors are chosen by the "some" vote. OTOH, the Legislature had no chioice but to find some electors as an insurance policy. I hope they won't have to send them.

What's your take on the USSC taking their time on the decision? Maybe they are devising a way to count? Flip a coin?
