No, Liberals… Hillary Did NOT Win The Popular Vote, Stop With The Petitions (absentees not counted)

Statistically, there is no way Hillary Clinton won the popular vote this year, because 2/3rds of the uncounted absentee ballots would have gone against her.

Absentee ballots are only counted when there are enough of them to affect the result.

[Be Careful]

....not to mention the need to back out Obama’s illegal votes/no repercussion numbers, as well as the run of the mill Dem fraud numbers....

[Mount Athos]

it varies by state whether they count them or not when not needed to decide the result

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I agree, but the absentees alone make the case.

[Steely Tom]

Had the election been fair — no vote fraud and fair press coverage — Trump's margin in the EC would have been twice what it was.

States don’t count their absentee ballots unless the number of outstanding absentee ballots is larger than the state margin of difference.

I rather doubt that is true. The state margin may be large, but down-ballot races may be tight. All legitimate ballots are counted.

Don’t forget the illegal alien vote.

[Vaquero]

The stolen votes alone gives Trump another 600000 edge.

[TexasGator]

You mean that if there aren’t enough votes to affect the presidential race the toss the votes in the sheriff’s race in the trashcan?

"States don’t count their absentee ballots unless the number of outstanding absentee ballots is larger than the state margin of difference."

This need to stop being propagated, as it is not accurate for all states. If there is anything we conservatives should be consistent about, it is that the truth should be our primary concern.

Hillary lost even with 5 million fake votes from illegals and dead people.

Democrats committed massive voter fraud . It’s democrats who almost stole the election

[MountainWalker]

Also, it’s a moronic argument to make since we have no idea who would have showed up in uncontested states if they knew their vote was going to matter.

Trump game planned to win the Electoral College. Crooked campaigned like she was drunk and lazy because she was. This pissing and moaning over the popular vote is just more sour grapes from professional complainers and losers.

[grania]

Without there being an electoral college system that separates votes into states, attempting to determine a winner would be a never-ending nightmare. For starters, in places with lax registration....that might be okay for local elections, but not for President. Illegals who voted would have to be identified and their votes eliminated. Just that would end up in courts forever. Then there would be all of those potential challenges of voting fraud and counting errors. It's not an issue that's pursued now, because it isn't a case of being situations that would make an overall difference.

These naysayers are out of line. As someone pointed out on Stephanapoulos' panel this AM (not a lot of happy campers), Trump did knock Jeb and all the others far worse than him out of contention. Can't everybody agree that's a good thing?

ALL VOTES MATTER ?

I feel every ballot, absentee or otherwise, should be counted, otherwise many people went to the extent of getting an absentee ballot for NOTHING?

WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOLD EVERY VOTE COUNTS...MAKE THEM ALL COUNT..

[Starboard]

Interesting point. Thank you. Good post.

[Spirit of Liberty]

Which makes absolutely no sense, since there were other items on the ballots that were cast. If they have to process the ballots for the other items, they should count every part.
