The correct answer is indeed choice D according to the explanation of the answer. New Hampshire has only 4 electoral votes, and Kerry already won New Hampshire according to the map legend. So, choice D is a false statement, meaning it is the correct answer. Choice C, on the other hand, is a true statement. When adding up all the electoral votes for Kerry, the result was 248 electoral votes. If Kerry had won Florida, he would have gotten in total 275 votes, meaning he would have become president. You need to exceed 270 votes in order to become president. Therefore, choice C is a true statement, meaning it is not the correct answer.

This question 14 has problem with choosing multiple choice with A and C, the right answer is C and it shows A. However, it still provides explanations of choice C.
