This claim will pay according to how many EVs the Republican candidate gets in 2004.

Here is a chart of the payout. EVs refers to Electoral Votes given to the Republican candidate for president.

0 EVs pays 0

The formula for payout is (Number of Republican EVs) - 220, between 0 and 100.

There are 538 EVs total. 270 EVs ensures a majority. If there isn't a majority, the winner of the presidential election is determined by the House of Representatives, however, that has no effect the payout of this claim.

Judge's Statement

For purposes of this claim, I will use the _actual votes_ from the Electoral College. This may vary in some years from the votes the popular vote in that state might indicate. If there is some variance of opinion concerning how the Electors votes should be counted, I'll take my best shot.
