... Democrats can't simply run up the score in giant liberal states like California, New York and Illinois and call it a day. Similarly, Republicans can't dominate Texas and the South and pull off a win. The equation is more complex -- with an array of constituencies, featuring varied opinions and dispositions, needing to be wooed. This is by design.
To that end, Donald Trump carried approximately 82 percent of all US counties, with Hillary Clinton's success being mostly limited to large urban, left-leaning populations. Trump won a supermajority of states and an overwhelming majority of counties, from coast to coast....
four touchdowns beat seven field goals. she scored more times, but that doesn’t mean she wins.
And she still had to cheat her fat ass off
What a load of poo. ALL absentee ballots are counted in every State. Every time. They may not be reported on Election Night but they are always fully included in the final certified results. There are other offices on absentee ballots besides President, especially local races where every vote really does come into play.
It takes a breathtaking amount of group ignorance for people to keep spouting this same baseless crap.
We have the same problem in Nevada.....
I know. But some FReeper yesterday said NV doesn’t have that problem, that most are legal immigrants and they have voter ID.
It’s worse than that. Hillary won by 1. million votes in LA county alone. Assuming she took the popular vote by 2 mil, it sounds like removing 2 US counties from the vote, LA, CA and Cook, IL, would throw it to Trump.
But the real answer to give is that, if popular vote was the goal, campaigning by the candidates, and voter intensity would have been totally different. So it really is an apples/oranges proposition to even talk about the popular vote.
He didn’t even reach the part about felons voting in some states, dead voting, and illegals voting.
I thought Trump was suppose to be the bad loser?
An extrapolation comparison:
If we lived in a one world government, China and India candidates would win every election for the next 1000 years.
