For the past 20 years PA's 20 electoral votes have gone to the Democratic candidate even though my region votes overwhelmingly for the Republican candidate. This election (2012) Lycoming county in which I reside, voted nearly 70% in favor of Mitt Romney vs. the roughly 30% that President Barack Obama recieved. It is unfair for so many votes/voices to be muted or ignored because of being outweighed by the larger cities with higher populations of Democrats.
