She spent gazillions on ads. $8/vote seems low to me.

No. There is no evidence at all that spendibg made a difference. The tape cost Trump NH, possibly MN. This cycle, I don’t tbink we could get CO, NM, NV. But next time.

I saw an estimate of 2 million Illegals voted...and no doubt all for Hillary.

If Trump can just get rid of them, future elections will go much better for our side. If we can also get rid of the fraud (i.e., multiple voting and poll workers doing proxy voting), that could mean another million or two Democrat votes will vanish.

Let’s wish Trump the best. If nothing else, it would be GREAT if he could leave our kids with a country that has honest elections!

THIS NYDN 2016 SUMMATION TAKES THE CAKE: Hillary’s stunning collapse and the magnitude and depth of her flop came despite "a popular incumbent President and his popular wife" campaigning for her.

OMG---that is the most insane rap on the election yet. Hillary surely lost BECAUSE the O's campaigned for her....not to mention the Royal Idiot's sucking up to the Castros which queered the Cuban vote in Florida. The Royal Idiot's ringing endorsement of Hillary had many people moving over to Trump.

CAUTION: prolonged viewing causes violent retching.
"I flacked her on AF One and she lost four points.
This frickin' faked pose oughta be good for a point."

And when Michelle said "she's my girl", collective ntl retching
took place. Even Hillary looked like she was about to heave.

This story celebrates the nonstop, never give up, marathon determination of a true winner. There was nothing magic about it. It was the fruit born from working extremely hard for incredibly long hours. It is the story of a man with a steel backbone who expended a Herculean effort because he correctly realized what it would take to win against all odds. He did it while his opponent slept and dreamed that her phony Hollywood surrogates would save her.

But the number of electoral votes is allocated on a mix of 2 (Senators) plus population (House)*. So the population density of cities will still be the major determining factor.

I’d rather see an inverted calculation, where each state gets a large base number, with a smaller weight to population.

* (Simply stated, but analogous)

2016 Eligible voter turnout % is predicted to be less than 2008 and 2012. We haven’t had even 65% eligible voter turnout since 1908. 2008 was the highest turnout since 1968. I thought it would have to be a huge turnout for Trump to win, I was way wrong. Besides the win, I don’t know if that’s a positive thing or not.

'Clinton won the popular vote by 0.2 percent, or about 200,000 votes out of a total of 120 million total votes cast.'

This is a lie, based on massive fraud in California:

"Over 500,000 Online Voter Registrations in Final 48 hours before California Deadline"

On election day, buses were observed crossing from Mexico and heading straight to polling booths.This was the culmination of years of making it more convenient for illegals to vote. In this election, the results were:

Hillary Clinton(Party: DEM) 5,528,043 61.5%
Donald J. Trump(Party: REP, AI) 2,990,062 33.2%
Jill Stein(Party: GRN) 153,787 1.7%
Gary Johnson(Party: LIB) 284,220 3.2%
Gloria Estela La Riva(Party: P&F) 38,517 0.4%

President - Statewide Results

If the California popular "vote" is ignored, Trump leads the real popular vote in the rest of the country by more than 2 million. If the fraud in other Democrat strongholds could be removed, Trump's margin would be even larger. Without the "Clinton won the popular vote" meme, some of the snowflakes might consider retreating to their safe spaces instead of rioting. Yes, the real American people really did pick Trump- in a landslide!.

Some more stats, Travis.

Trump won 80.2% of the Counties/Parish/Townships in the country. Clinton won only 20.8%

Of the counties they WON, the margin of victory is astounding.

Trump’s AVERAGE margin of victory in those counties was 36 points. We think of a 20 point (60% to 40%) win as a blowout. Trump AVERAGED a 68% to 32% win in the counties he won.

There is a huge divide in this country between the Rural and Urban voters.

“The presumption is flawed. There is no real evidence that a hillary visit would have made any difference”

Judging from her lack of crowds, you are right.

They have to be counted, at least by the county, otherwise votes for House/Senate/governor/ local offices would be disenfranchised.

We wouldn’t have this problem if schools would spend more time on the constitution than LGBT indoctrination.

The states only count the absentee ballots if the margin of victory is less than the number of absentee ballots. Therefore, this idea that she actually won the popular vote is unverifiable unless all the absentee ballots are counted.

[Trump spent $4 per vote he won, Clinton spent $8.]

Does that $8 include all the fawning press she got for free from her Marxist friends in the media?

Exactly! She played "prevent offense and defense", and I am guessing it was a combination of both her health and entitlement issues. Donald Trump should be held up as an example of the American work ethic!
