Donald Trump suffered a blow in the Pennsylvania primary on Tuesday, as tens of thousands of Republicans refused to vote for him despite being the presumptive GOP nominee...Nikki Haley, who ended her campaign for the White House after Super Tuesday in March, still received 16.5 percent of the vote, equating to more than 155,000 ballots.

Ping...
well afterall- the left claim the economy is great and improving all the time despite prices surging and nearly double what they were when Trump was president!
That all ya got, Ewan?
Its either sad or hilarious how desperate the media is these days..... Im not sure
It was a primary. Some preferred other candidates over Trump so they voted for their preferred candidate.
In the end Trump got over 80% of the vote. What matters now is how Trump does in the general election.
Pains me to say it, but the November election will be STOLEN AGAIN. We’ll get 4 more years of a CHINA/UNITED NATIONS/TEAM OBAMA/PUPPET BIDEN president with $10/gallon gas, and other various DESTRUCTIVE actions by the globalists who seek to DESTROY America.
How the left spins facts to create propaganda should be illegal.
Thus Trump’s winning 83% of the vote represents a ‘huge vote against him’.
Dumbassery on display. Tacit endorsement of jokin’ joe.
He already has the nomination locked. Anything after that is just noise...................
“Trump got over 80% of the vote.”
I remember Brit Hume pontificating on the Trump vote in New Hampshire. “He has got to get 80% of the Republican vote to say that he won,” or some such.
Trump got 84% of the votes and a “huge” vote against gets the headline. Obviously, 16% is much more huge at Newsweek than 84%.
More wishful thinking from Newsweek.
NEWSWEEK is working overtime to create totally FALSE headlines.
especially when the nominee is already chosen....
Just turn over the nearest rock. ‘Like as not, she’ll be brooding there.
#1, 16% is not huge. #2, Last I saw, Biden had 16% voting other.
As of yesterday, there are 3.5 million Republicans in Pennsylvania vs 3.9 million Dems. I am surprised that there are only 11% unenrolleds and even less in other parties.
There are 743,900 inactive registrations.
If you just look at the active registrations
Dems 3,528,279
Reps 3,289,628
Oth 1,158,510
Tot 7,976,417
The difference is 238,651
They have virtually the same new registrations since January 1. 42,751 Dems; 42,726 Reps
This whole article is based on a low turnout which was probably because Trump has clinched the nomination.
This failed “newsweekly” which sold for one dollar a few years ago, had EXACTLY the same headline about Trump in the Florida primary two months ago.
PA is closed primary. A citizen can change party registration up to 15 days before a primary election.
