On Friday’s episode of Facts Matter, we went through and detailed how Republicans in Nebraska are currently in the process of trying to change their state’s Electoral College system into a winner-take-all system. The governor and Nebraska state Senate Republicans are trying to get rid of the current system that they have wherein the electoral votes are split up based on congressional districts. If this policy change actually goes through, it would mean that former President Donald Trump would likely get an extra electoral vote in the upcoming 2024 presidential election. And according to some estimates, this could be the deciding factor in determining whether or not President Joe Biden wins the White House. Pundits on MSNBC spent quite a lot of air time decrying this as an attack on the sanctity of the vote. However, interestingly, there is something that they chose to not devote so much air time to: right ahead of the midterms, the U.S. Census Bureau came out with a report, admitting that during the most recent Census, they miscounted the populations in 14 different states. Notably, they undercounted the populations in six states while simultaneously overcounting the populations in eight states.

And wouldn’t you believe it: their mistake would lead to Mr. Biden receiving three extra electoral votes than he otherwise would have.
