That's why he'd have to get at least third in the EC, because the house is only allowed to choose between the three candidates with the most EC votes. Edit: also, the house vote is even more stacked against Democrats than the EC is, since each state gets one vote regardless of population. I don't know off hand whether DC gets a vote since they're not a state but do get EC votes. Using the 2020 election results it would be a 25-25 split, with DC going blue if it does get a vote. --- There are four lights. <cite>willythemailboy posted [p:979125251] in Imagine if...
