    Yup. I'm in favor of NO senators. Who needs senators if the states are proportionally represented? We don't live in horse 'n buggy days anymore.

    We have on video Obama telling illegals to vote for Hillary and we also have a report of 1.8 million or more dead people voting and you expect us to believe Hillary won the popular vote? I don't think so. California only requires a signature to say your a citizen so anybody can vote there including non us citizens. States like NC allow you to vote for dead people. Of the 1.8 million dead people registered to vote at least 1 million of them are said to be Democrats.

    If there was no electoral college then California would decide every single election the country every has. Eventually people would get tired of that and demand the popular vote system be changed. Let's also point out most of California had red counties. Only the big cities won it for Hillary but the rural areas went to Trump.

    I am not your friend, we are enemies in a war of culture and I will not rest until the ideas you espouse are absolutely discredited and politically your side is completely annihilated. No one in America will experience Liberty until that happens.

    Fact. To be honest neither you nor I can know whether or not Hillary won the popular vote because the vote totals coming out of the non ID states are to some degree fiction. Fact

    Voter ID has no affect on voter fraud committed by Absentee ballots or corruption with election officials.

    Impersonation voter fraud, which voter ID laws prevent, is extremely rare.

    There is easily reason to believe fraud exist in states with voter ID laws, just ask Governor McCory.

    This isn't true first of all, Hillary won the national vote by a larger number than she won Los Angeles county.

    But even beyond that...so what? It's useless data. Without Waukesha County, Trump would lose Wisconsin, so what? Without Livingston County, Trump would've lost Michigan, so what? Without the Naples-Ft Myers area Trump would've lost Florida, so what? Pointing out big wins in certain areas is a rather useless statistic.

    She won Los Angeles county by 4 million votes. If California voted in the same percentages of other blue states, Trump would win the popular vote.

    You should be easy with it. We have a big country, and the whole of the country needs to be represented, not just a few liberal population centers who cram as many people in as possible and pay them to reproduce.

    We're not a pure democracy, and never have been. The Founders saw it as a threat and wisely set up a Constitutional Republic to prevent against it.

    No, it's not.

    Non citizens vote Democrat. Why do you think Democrats want them to vote?

    No one can know what a popular election vote results would have been. It is total folly for someone to claim she won a national popular vote as there was no such vote and there never has been such a vote.

    The constitution doesn't guarantee the people the right to vote for the president. The states could draw straws for electors if they wanted to.

    she got more votes then Trump, so one can't say more people supported Trump, all one can say is that Trump won and will be our next President, the last time this happened we had Bush, Let's hope Trump does better then that President did

    As of the latest count, Hillary Clinton won Los Angeles county by 1,273,485 votes over Donald Trump. In the latest release I've seen, her national lead is around 1.8 million.

    Counterwise, If all states everywhere voted in the same percentages as the national popular vote...Hillary would be president.

    He got more votes in more states that she did and won more electors.

    There is no national vote.
    One can't saying anything about a national vote as no national vote exists. You are dealing in folly.

    In a few states she did but he got more votes in more states. There IS NO NATIONAL POPULAR VOTE.

    Is that so hard for you to grasp. Were there to be one the results would be entirely different from a tally of the 51 entirely separate an unique stare votes.

    It's quite obvious that the person who has more overall votes will be noted in some fashion. Although, obviously, it carries no official recognition.

    she got more total votes votes then Trump did, were all Americans.... and more Americans voted for Clinton... seems easy to grasp....

    that said, Trump won the electoral vote, so he wins the Presidency

    be happy, Republican's won... don't be sad that most Americans did not vote for your guy... what difference does it make.... he still won

    As meaningless trivia? The only persons who would assign any significance to it are those who are clueless as to how presidents are elected.

    40 pages on this OP. ha ha ha

    Why am I laughing? Because the fact that Clinton had more popular votes than trump is irrelevant. So, 40 pages over an irrelevance. And that is worthy of a laugh or two. Ha ha ha. We sometimes do not got 40 pages on something that has relevance.

    Please cite the election in which all Americans voted.

    t
    Yes by winning the most elections and the most electoral votes, the ONLY number that has any significance or validity.


    Oh BIG TIME.


    I will say this one more time to you. Trump was not is not "my guy". You know that and you know there are threads on this forum I created that were highly critical of him. I did not vote for him.

    So if you continue to post otherwise I will label you a liar and report it to the mods as a misrepresentation of my standing.

    Is that clear now?

    You WERE a supporter of Clinton and you lost, big time, now get over it and deal with it.
