We're coming up on 2 years after the Presidential election, and the Democrats/Liberals are still crying over Hillary's epic loss. Hillary herself has blamed everyone & everything, except herself which is quite self defeating. Too bad she didn't have the fortitude to just stand up & admit her own responsibility. But I'm not interested in that.
What I want to know is just who did cost her the election & how??? Nevermind the current or ongoing narrative of Mueller's investigation. Who do YOU think is responsible & why or how???
If you are or were a Hillary supporter...…..were you or anyone you know influenced in any way to either vote against her? Or not vote at all???(which is a vote for someone, in and of itself mind you)
The biggest thing was the system.
Trump got -2.8 million
Obama got + 5 million and +9.5 million
Dubya got -500,000 and +3 million
Clinton got +8 million and +5.8 million
Not since Jimmy Carter has a Democrat got less than +5 million to get elected.
In that time Republicans have failed TWICE (that's half their presidents) to gain the popular vote, and Dubya managed to win with only 3 million.
In fact if you do the math, the Republicans have a massive advantage, especially with smaller states.
Wyoming is the smallest, staunch Republican.
Vermont is next. Staunch Democrat.
North Dakota, staunch Republican
Alaska, staunch Republican.
South Dakota, staunch Republican.
Delaware, staunch Democrat.
Montana, staunch Republican
These are the states of less than 1 million as of 2010.
2 Democrat, 5 Republican.
Those states are some of the least populated AKA least amount of Electorates......and it is the Electoral vote count that determines the Presidency.
So tell me, did anything or anyone influence your vote??
I'm struggling to see the connection between what I wrote and what you wrote.
These states are the least populated. Each state has at least 3 electoral college votes. This means that a state the size of Wyoming, half a million people, gets three votes. That's 6 votes per million people.
A state like California has 55 electoral college votes. At 40 million people, that's just over one vote per million people.
Do you see the problem?
