I glad I not way wrong on Clint Eastwood. I know he did many spaghetti westerns so my guess from that.
Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride - Round 2 - Question #1

Illinois 21
Pennsylvania 21
Ohio 20
Michigan 17
Georgia 15
New Jersey 15
North Carolina 15
Win with 271
F6FHellcat, you are correct. Though America consists of 50+1 voting states, only 11 states are required for victory in a presidential race. That’s a little more than 10%. Of course, any candidate who follows this strategy is in for a risky proposition as the two largest states - California and Texas - are nominally split between Democratic and Republican. More important are the larger swing states, states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Florida with no clear cut favorite. And true this, the vast majority of a candidates’ time and money goes into these states.
Question #2 - Sports
Of the five major sports leagues in America, which league(s) use the term “referee” when describing a person who has the authority to make decisions regarding rules of conduct during play?

Mount Everest not biggest. Mauna Loa is biggest mountain in world and second tallest. Mauna Kea is tallest mountain but less mass than Mauna Loa.
