Tom Corbett Goes To Washington D.C.

09.21.11 | Sarah Harnisch, Terry Diener

 Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett is in Washington D.C. today to meet with republican leaders about a plan to change how the state awards electoral votes in Presidential elections. Corbett backs a winner-take-all system that gives all the electoral votes to the candidate who wins the statewide elections. Proponents say it would be more fair. Critics say it would cost Pennsylvania's reputation as a presidential battleground.
