Ohio and NH are short enough to be worth it, maybe Idaho and Kansas too? A chart for points per letter would be nice, but I would recommend Texas, California, New York, Pennsylvania, NH, Ohio, Kansas, Texas, Georgia, Indiana.

There are other shortenings you can use as well: ilinos, pensylvania, misuri, tenesee, minesota, loisiana, masachusets, misisipi, conneticut, and roadisland all give better votes/character.

New electoral system? I got curious... Every state now gets one electoral vote for each letter in it's name.

Ignoring DC (would you count it as DC for two votes, or District of Columbia for 18?), and changing Nebraska and Maine to winner-takes-all system like the rest of the country, there are 422 electoral votes available.

For 2024:

Donald Trump wins 252 (60% of electoral votes, up from 58% in reality)

Kamala Harris wins 170 (40% of electoral votes, down from 42% in reality)

Honestly kind of shocked it matches up with reality so closely. Maybe this is how we should award electoral votes!

Wow, a really cool game! One thing I would change is something about spelling mistakes because its annoying if, for example i would want to write down "Pennsylvania" i have to type it quite fast so that i can move on to the next state but because i am typing so fast i might write "Pennslyvania" and i will have to delete all of that and then write it again which means i wasted crucial seconds having to do that (Pennsylvania isn't the only state i have had issues with)
