I'm really loving this post-gerrymandering-winner-by-congressional-district election idea.
If applied to the entire country, one Willard Mittens Romney would have won the election with 276 electoral votes, while losing the popular vote by 4,967,598. In the state of Ohio, he would have won 12 of the 18 electoral votes (66.67%), even though he lost the state.
In other news, it's being rumored that starting in the 2013-2014 NFL season, home teams will be rewarded 12 points for a touchdown, 6 for a field goal, 4 for a safety, and 2 for an extra point.
As announcer Al Michaels would put it:
"Even while the visiting Cleveland Browns scored 21 points on three touchdowns and extra points, they were no match for the home team Cincinnati Bengals, who came away with 28 points on two touchdowns and extra points. Now, to hear his reaction on the game, we have Browns tailback Trent Richardson with Erin Andrews. Erin?"
Andrews: "Thanks, Al. So, what is your first reaction to this hard-fought inner-division game, Trent? ...and what can you do to help move your team forward?"
Richardson: "I don't get it. ::starts counting on his fingers:: Wait... We lost? How did we lose? There weren't any field goals or safeties, and we scored more touchdowns than they did. How did they get 28 points on two touchdowns? ::busts out the calculator:: What?"
Andrews: "Back to you, Al."
