So what are these people even implying?

They act as if her getting a ton of votes in California, NYC, Chicago and Massachusetts should make a difference when she got fewer votes in the majority of the states!

They want states where she got fewer votes than Trump to award their EV to her because she got more votes in some other states she won!

Basically doing in these states what they are decrying supposedly happening nationwide?

The difference is that doing it via these states is actually disenfranchising them! It is nullifying their votes to placate a “popular vote” that has no legal basis in choosing the president.

The funny thing is that if this goes to a tie then each state gets one vote and she loses by even more. When one person does not get 270 EV. Then it goes to congress. But not a straight up vote. It is one vote per state. So each state votes as their congressmen direct. Each state delegation votes for one of the top three candidates. Then Hillary loses by more. Probably 30 to 20.
