Not to mention that millions of her votes in CA were ILLEGAL VOTES, cast by ILLEGAL ALIENS, most of whom were MEXICAN NATIONALS.

So, if we look to some foreign country interfering in our election, look south of the border and forget Russia.

Here are the facts:

Trump won the popular vote in 31 states to Clinton’s 19 and DC. 62% to her 38%.
Trump led in the total popular vote for all states except California.

Hillary won California: 5,860,714 to Trump’s 3,151,821. 61.6% to 33.1%, exclusive of the other candidates. Thus California gave Hillary the popular vote for all states as claimed by the Democrats and their media stooges.

But deduct her California vote from her national vote leaving her with 54,978,783, and deduct Trump’s California vote from his national total, leaving him with 57,113.976, he wins in a landslide in the other 49 states, 51.3% to her 48.7%.

So, in effect, Hillary was elected president of California and Trump was elected president of the rest of the country, by a substantial margin.

This exemplifies the wisdom of the Electoral College, to prevent the votes of any one populace state from overriding the votes of the others.

Trump’s Campaign Manager, Kellyanne Conway, whose expertise is polling, saw this early on and devised her strategy of “6 pathways to the White House”. This meant ignoring California with its huge Democrat majority and going after the states that would give him the necessary electoral votes to win, FL, NC, MI, PA, OH, and WI.

At its lowest point since the civil war! Could this mean the end of the Democratic Party?

When the afternoon of January 20, 2017 arrives, the Republican Party will have:
1) The Presidency.
2) A majority of the House of Representatives.
3) A majority of the Senate.
4) Almost two-thirds of all the governors.
5) Total control of the statehouses in almost two-thirds of all the states.
6) And in the near future, Republicans will be able to add a majority of the Supreme Court.

The above has never happened before in American history.

Think about this and let it sink in for a moment.

And it’s all because of one reason: Barack Obama forcing his extreme far-left agenda on an unwilling country by executive orders, left wing judges, and obsequious bureaucrats.

It’s important to pass this on.

With the demand that we do away with the Electoral College and take the popular vote being pushed by the media, etc., all Americans need to know that the Electoral College is working exactly as our Founding Fathers intended.

The sad bottom line is Hillary Clinton, despite all her blatant corruptions, lies, and lack of integrity, she got 48% of the vote nation wide. More people voted for HER than anyone else.

I’m not trying to be a downer. But despite Trumps win in the Electoral College, he is going into to office probably as the most hated incoming POTUS we have ever had.

This is clear evidence the Progressive and Media indoctrination of the American people is still strong and growing. I still believe we are heading for the day when any Republican candidate will have no shot at he Presidency as the Democrats will continue to grow in numbers.

Keep in despite Hillary’s massive unpopularity as well, she still came up 1.8% short of 50% of the vote. We have more and more people in this country that will vote for ANYONE that is the Democrat.

I believe Trump will have a very difficult 4 years. The Progressive attacks will be massive. The media lies will plentyful. Resistance from both parties on congress will be strong.

I pray for him everyday, that despite all the overwhelming odds, he can succeed in Making America Great Again.

I say you have to add the primary votes. Who wins then?
hahahaha, I love that they are such sore losers! If you only count people with back hair Clinton won in a landslide! Are they planning to do this for 4 years because it’s already quite tiresome. How do you stay angry for 4 years without yielding? Well, I guess we’re about to find out.

While you’re at it remind them that the Russians did nothing to affect the vote count. The mexicans here illegally DID.

Trump won the popular vote of more states than Clinton did, which earned him more electoral votes than Clinton, thus he is president.

Those are the rules.

Anyone stating that Clinton won based on the national vote count is basically saying that a football victory should be determined by which team has more offensive yardage rather than the actual score.

Libs just want to change the rules for the girl, because the girl couldn’t get the job done as usual.

Oh good grief. She won the plurality of the vote, which was evident shortly after the election.

It was less than 60% eligible voter turnout. More eligible voters didn’t vote than actually voted for any single candidate. We haven’t had even 65% eligible voter turnout since 1908.

Except that she did win the popular vote. No other candidate won more votes than she did.

Having said that, so what? Trump won the only votes that really count.

If Russia “hacked the Election”, how did Hillary get more Votes?

Simple, because Mexico hacked the Election.

She won a PLURALITY of the popular vote but not a MAJORITY. In a world where Fake News reigns supreme there is no hope that any Dumbocrats or Media propagandists understand the difference. It doesn't fit their narrative despite the fact that the popular vote means zip, zero, zilch, nada, nothing. They count on a dumbed down and completely ignorant following otherwise the Dems wouldn't even be close enough to steal the elections that they do win. plu·ral·i·ty plo͝oˈralədē/ noun 1. the fact or state of being plural. "some languages add an extra syllable to mark plurality" 2. US the number of votes cast for a candidate who receives more than any other but does not receive an absolute majority.
