????? Soooo 55 wasnt enough for you so you throw out those who consider themselves to be only "leaners" toward Republican or Democrat. 63 still wasnt enough so you simply inflated it to 70 AND the "Power Calculator" doesnt even consider "both democrats", as you allege, who are running for President but instead measures whether people "consider themselves to be" Republicans or Democrats. Yes, "we use the electoral college". We also use individuals as presidential candidates instead of people simply voting based upon whether they consider themselves to be Democrat or Republican.
Thats quite a distortion that isnt much use in any honest debate.
