    California Voter Not To Late To Re-Register Electorial = 55

    Since the Republican Party will not allow Independents or Democrats to vote Republican, let's just re- register. As a temporary Republican, we can vote for any party and our vote will count. California is worth more electorial points than any other state. We have a lot of voting power this time around.

    That electorial list is screwed up.....I am confused.

    They said that Michigan is 30 delegates and I know that Romney won at least 7 (maybe when he came in first place in Wyoming!!
