This is based on 43 states being considered "non-negotiable" and "set in stone" while only 7 are considered "swing" states
Also consider I specified "voters", who are at best only 2/3 of the total population, which leaves out about 100 million extra people
Nah cuz its still just too big and too fast. Small candidates need like time to build up momentum to get off the ground. And they cant break thru and get traction in a huge national election at all cuz they dont have the funds to buy ad space and stuff nationally yet. Limiting it to a small area makes it a lot cheaper to compete.
