Remember: The Center-Right Won the Popular Vote for President in 2016

[mikegriffith1]

If you add up all the votes for president in the 2016 election, including votes for third-party presidential candidates, the center-right won the popular vote, and won it rather handily, not the left:

Trump -- 62,983,000
Johnson -- 4,500,000
McMullin -- 700,000
Castle -- 172,000
TOTAL -- 68,355,000

Clinton -- 65,853,000
Stein -- 469,000
TOTAL -- 66,322,000

This means that the center-right vote topped the center-left vote by more than 2 million votes: 68,355,000 to 66,322,000. That is encouraging.

One reason that Hillary lost in 2016 is that she got slightly fewer votes than Obama got in 2012: she received 65,853,000 vs. 65,915,000 for Obama. Trump, on the other hand, got over 2 million more votes than Romney got in 2012: he received 62,984,000 vs. 60,933,000 for Romney.

Moreover, not only did Trump beat Hillary in states won 30-20, but Trump buried Hillary in counties won: He won over 3,000 counties, while she won fewer than 200. Think about that: the county is the most basic political unit. Yet, Hillary won a majority of the vote in fewer than 200 counties out of over 3,200 counties.

According to my calculations the Center/Left won the Popular Vote by over 6 millions votes.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

and as we all know, you remove the illegal/fruad votes coming from Cally/NY/Virginia, Trump wins by 7 to 8 Million votes

I disagree with your assessment that Johnson is "center-right".

Even thought she won the Pop vote in 2016 she lost by less than 80,000 votes in MI, WI and PA. Also lost via Russia, I call that a win.

I disagree with your assessment that Johnson is "center-right".

Johnson disagrees with Trump on almost every one of Trump's most prominent positions:

1. Johnson is a free trader - Trump is protectionist and made that a cornerstone of his campaign

2. Johnson opposes the Wall - Trump made building the wall another cornerstone of this campaign; Johnson also opposes Trump on almost every other immigration related issue.

3. Johnson is pro-choice - Trump is anti-choice.

lol I reduced another one to childish trolling. Another notch on my USMB Belt of Destruction! lolol

 

[NYcarbineer]

For a bunch of clowns who repeatedly rant about how the popular vote doesn't matter,

they sure do start a lot of threads and make a lot of posts about the popular vote.

 

[Penelope]

Those names under Trump and Clinton are independents which means not Pub or Dem.

 

[Wry Catcher]

It's passed the time to worry about who really won and who lost in the election of 2016.

In 2017, Wall Street, Big Business, global corporations and the Military Industrial Complex are clearly the winners, and Main St., the middle class and working poor lost.
