Purdue129 Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 If the electoral votes are tied, the House of Reps picks a winner. So by hell or high water one guy will get sent home packin'. and the Republicans have control, so Bush would be re-elected... the Republicans also look poised to take over the Senate, which means Cheney would join him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale Hose Jon Posted November 1, 2004 Share Posted November 1, 2004 and the Republicans have control, so Bush would be re-elected... the Republicans also look poised to take over the Senate, which means Cheney would join him actually, each state gets one vote. And if the election was close enough in that state, they may abstain from voting. And you have to get 26 votes to win. If neither gets 26, then the winner of the vice president run off in the senate takes over on an interm basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale Hose Jon Posted November 2, 2004 Share Posted November 2, 2004 And 30 of the 50 states have majority of republicians. true, but the new congress would cast votes to determine the winner.
