Popular vote total

[Fusionmunster]

The only solace I take from Hillary's popular vote win is the fact that history will remember her as the wronged party in a rigged electoral system. If we do abolish electoral votes in the coming years, it will be because of 2016 silencing 2 million of her voters.

As of this morning, November 15, Hillary Clinton has 797,724 more votes than Trump. This is essentially equivalent to telling everyone in Dallas, Texas (population 1.3 million, about 60% eligible to vote) that their vote will be ignored this year. Why do we have the electoral college?  It has served to ignore the will and preference of the people twice in the past 20 years, resulting in Republican presidents when the people chose the Democrat. How is this democracy? Why do we have no respect for the majority vote?

There is no national popular vote or national election. There are 50 states and DC elections. Trump won 30 of those (59%to Clinton's 41%) and 306--232 (57% to Clinton's 43%) of the Electoral Votes.

Had Trump wanted/needed to win the national popular vote he would have. Clinton tried to win the majority of Electoral College votes and she failed...she wasn't tryin to win any mythical national popular vote. She rightly didn't care about that.

Only a very stupid person doesn't know this.

More people voted for Hillary. More people wanted Hillary to be president.

Only a very stupid person doesn't know this.

Why do we even track the popular vote? This isn't even one election; it's 51 different elections.

So everyones voice can be heard. If the shoe was on the other foot, i'd bet you'd be outraged just like Mr. Trump was in 2012.

>muh popular vote

3 million non citizens voted, so Trump actually won by about 1.75 million votes.

No voter photo ID in half the states as well. Big problem in CA, NY, NJ!

Libtards BTFO, keep crying about muh popular vote.

Source? I know you're under 20 posts, but could you at least name where you got that from?

I'll save you the trouble:

Gregg Phillips @jumpvote

“We have verified more than three million votes cast by non-citizens,” tweeted Phillips after reporting that the group had completed an analysis of a database of 180 million voter registrations."

You've got a reliable source?

So what will be Clinton's final PV margin? 1.5% seems likely, right? Really hilarious that this basically feels like a VA election on the national level, with CA being Fairfax County.

Im hoping for 2%. And that VA comparison is oversimplified. Hillary did fine in other large blue states and her margin in Texas helped her PV numbers.
