The presidential election not a national election but is 51 state elections because the electors in the Electorial College elect the president.

If I vote repub in Nye County which is sparsely populated and 3 million in Clark County vote democrat the majority of Nevada’s 6 electors will be democrats. My vote one way or the other means nothing in the presidential election.


I was a lifelong registered Republican until about 20 years ago and figured out they were a rich man’s club and didn’t give a shit about me so I re-registered independent.

While Americans have already started turning in their ballots, and millions more will turn out to their local polling places on Nov. 8, the future occupant of the White House will ultimately be determined by a small number of electors who make up the Electoral College. Each state has a different number of electors, and those electors are bound by different rules in each state. But in Nevada, there are six electors, representing 1.1 percent of the total 538 electoral votes that will be cast in the 2016 presidential election.
