FINALLY: TRUMP WINS MICHIGAN (13,225 vote margin)
WLNS ^

Posted on 11/09/2016 9:00:29 AM PST by springwater13

It took nearly 16 hours to determine but Michigan is officially with Donald Trump.

Trump has won a hard fought battle for Michigan’s 16 electoral votes.

Just after 11:20 a.m. Wednesday, Michigan Secretary of State Ruth Johnson released the final popular vote totals.

In the presidential race Donald Trump received 2,277,586 votes to Hillary Clinton’s 2,264,361.

Trump recorded a razor-thin margin in the 83 county total: 47.60 percent to Clinton’s 47.33 percent.

It’s a key win that few saw coming in Trump’s quest for the 270 votes that could make him the next president of the United States.

And add a cherry on top too! I’m so happy but it’s almost like a dream!

Trump winning MI, PA, and WI—it’s like Christmas coming early! It’s amazing how many Dems he convinced to switch over to his side, while keeping most Republicans in these areas. He even won the quintessential “Reagan Democrat” county, Macomb County, a little north of Detroit. Detroit and the People’s Republic of Ann Arbor just weren’t enough to off-set that shift. Brilliant.

Minnesota would’ve been nice, very close there. Also Nevada and Virginia (thanks for nothing, Mitt Romney and your little spoiler buddy). But hey, it’s celebration time!!!

New Mexico just took a step backward in preventing voter fraud. The new Democratic SOS ran on a platform of making it easier for residents to vote by rejecting calls for voter ID and allowing down ballot straight party voting with one vote.

The CNN map is still showing MI as undecided with 96% in. Still counting Detroit?

Love living in a red state!!!

I think I'm going to get a pair of red mittens to commemorate this election. It's been too long! As a friend of mine said, "It's wonderful to have your vote matter!"

So when are they going to call Michigan and give the EV to Trump!!
Same with AZ. 100 % of the vote is in and DT won AZ by 5% and one of ME’s EV.

Yet they still have him sitting at 279 when he should be at 307 with no more votes left to count.

yep most the media maps are the same.

Michigan, Arizona, and Maine are 100% reported and not one EV from those states have been given to Trump. I guess they don’t want people to see his EV at 307

They don’t want to show the low info types that his Electoral College count is over 300 (307) and his win is not close due to the electoral college!!

Folks who follow politics already knows he won Arizona, Maines 2nd CD and narrowly won Michigan and is over 300 EVs. Heck, I don’t think CBS EVER called Ohio for Bush in 2004!

Trump won Arizona by 4.3% (84,000 votes), 100% precincts reporting. Have no idea why Arizona hasn’t been called by the media - maybe they are depressing Trumps real Electoral Vote count to make his win more narrower to the low information types?

Have searched all day and cannot find any updated numbers with Michigan or Arizona included. Have to assume the MSM is being spiteful because the numbers would put Trump over 300 EV and would possibly take away Team Hillary’s “but she won the popular vote” argument!

Anyone know when/where the final totals will be published?

Trump worked hard to win here, so even though the victory was secured, it must be gratifying to know that his efforts paid off. Pennsylvania & Michigan!!!!

I voted one hour, before my plane left.

I did not know the election result, until I got back here.

Very, very good.

And if you subtract the dead, illegal, and machine flipping votes from Hillary, the margin is even bigger

I was just checking on MI and AZ. I did a search and it still shows MI, AZ and NH still pending. Frustrating as we know MI and AZ belong in the T column.
