-—I didn’t even bother voting for President here in CA. No point, IMHO. So what if Sleepy Joe wins here by 4,000,001 or 4,000,000 popular votes? It’s still 55 EVs.
Yes, but it’s about the Popular Vote. If tens of thousands of Californians do like you do (and they do!), it DOES affect the popular vote totals.
Bull chit! Ask "Hillary!" how winning the Popular Vote worked out for her. Besides, I was more interested in the local elections, where I can actually have some influence. Truth to tell, if it hadn't been for some of our ballot initiatives this year, I might not have even bothered.
