How is it that the recent thread on Trump winning Michigan showed him having the greater number of popular votes with new state added?

Each state gets a certain say just by virtue of being a state, no matter how large or small it is.

Our modern leftists want to see the USA melt down into some continuous America. States? Isn’t that a redneck concept?

The electoral college worked. Their vote totals have illegals in it. So they possible lost with legal votes.

Without the electoral college, CA, NY would elect every President, the rest of us would have no say.

If Trump lost the popular vote he should call for an end to the electoral college-lol.

Didn’t we see something of a study finding that 6% of illegal immigrants voted in the 2012 election? We can just presume that number to have gone up since. CA is responsible for a good chunk of them, but they have voted in many states.

I am confident that the actual final tally—minus illegals and other fraudulent additions to the Democrat total—came down on the side of Trump.

agree ! Electoral College does help preserve the will of the Fly Over States ....

Include we upstate NY Conservatives! If it had not been for the electoral college, my vote would be cancelled every time. NY city in one building would throw out our town!!

God Bless Us One and All.

What A Great Day It is...The libtards here are unhinged(can you say that too much, no) Thanks

Keep pushing this narrative so we are compelled to dig into the fraud and demonstrate that trump won the popular vote too.

God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.

So much for the popular vote out of phantoms, dead souls, and cemeteries.

Exactly -

Tell ALL your Progressive friends, that you need to discard the East German judge, AKA California.

5.48 million for Hillary
2.93 million for Trump

THAT is CA skewing the national results.

We know the loose voting there, and the aberrant population stats.

Let southern CA secede.

Once he builds that wall and deports alien felons, the dems will get a few million less fraudulent votes.

That’s what Trump is going to attempt to stanch.

Not all the traditionally leftists’ groups are of a uniform mind about this. Some are opposed to the path that got us to where we are. I met an IT fellow from India yesterday who believed America needed a “hard reboot.” That couldn’t mean Hillary.
