^fact^ deflectionIt would be if more people had voted for him than his opponent. Instead it's a black eye.She's currently up over 1.3 million votes. Spin it however you want. Trump better not think he has any kind of mandate.Cut the crap.....But for Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York City, Clinton LOSES the popular vote.
Don't go telling USMB three cities determine the so called will of the people.
IN fact it was not until California votes were tabulated did Clinton gain the lead in the Popular vote.
And THAT is why the Electoral College exists. Too keep one state or more appropriately a few large cities from beiing the sole determining factor by which candidate becomes the next POTUS
306-232 is a fairly good mandate
It is, because they are the votes that matter.
can you name one election where the loser of the Electoral Vote lost to the winner of the Popular vote?
This is why the Founders set up the Electoral College...
To PREVENT 3-4 states, actually cities in this example, from deciding the presidency.
