New Movie Claims Google Handed the Popular Vote to Hillary Clinton in 2016
PJ Media ^ | September 23, 2018 | Tyler O'Neil

When Donald Trump surprised the world by winning the 2016 election, liberals clung to the idea that his victory was illegitimate because Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. According to a psychologist who supported Clinton in 2016, however, Google's bias in Clinton's favor may remove even that symbolic victory from her.

Almost all of Clinton's popular vote margin could be attributed to Google bias, making her win "negligible." Dr. Robert Epstein, a psychologist who earned his Ph.D. at Harvard, actually reported this finding last year, but he explains how it works in the upcoming film "The Creepy Line."

Epstein made a stir in 2015 by reporting in Politico that Google could "rig" the 2016 election. This story discussed the results of his study, which was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). That study found that "biased search ranking can easily shift the voting preferences of undecided voters from 20% or more — up to 80% in some demographic groups."

In a white paper published by the American Institute for Behavioral Research and Technology in June 2017, Epstein followed up on this PNAS study, suggesting that Clinton's popular vote margin was almost entirely attributable to pro-Clinton bias at Google.

"Extrapolating from the mathematics introduced in this report ... the lead author of the PNAS study [Epstein himself] predicted that a pro-Clinton bias in Google's search results would, over time, shift at least 2.6 million votes to Clinton. She won the popular vote in the November election by 2,864,974 votes," Epstein wrote with his co-author Ronald E. Robertson.

"Without the pro-Clinton bias in Google's search results, her win margin in the popular vote would have been negligible," Epstein wrote.

There was a reason madison pushed for an electoral college. His study of greek and roman societies showed their down fall was popular vote . and most often it was a shortsighted idea or problem with an inflamed public voting on it. Instead of letting things cool down and having cooler heads make policy.

democracies fail because you let everyone vote, and most people are literally too stupid to make decisions that matter beyond tomorrow. I give you the proliferation of tattoos as an example of how myopic the general public is.

How many people who voted for Trump will now re elect Democrat Senators this November?
Some are uninformed.. I just do not get it. Will it be many narrow races as in Senate races of 1986?

Many women live on their phones and rely on them for guidance in everything.

We know from commercials that women in bed popping bonbons can buy a car on their phone.

If they can scrounge up a husband on their phone, there is no problem being force fed a person to vote for

I firmly believe that Trump also won New Hampshire, Virginia, Nevada, Minnesota, Colorado, and possibly Maine. Due to massive voter fraud all over the country these would have easily gone to Trump. He truly destroyed her electorally. I

[Yes, a large percentage of democrats will believe whatever mass media tells them. They make no effort past hearing and believing. Many swing voters are the same way. They just blow in the msm wind. It takes too much effort for them to think critically. Mostly because they heve been programmed to not think, thanks to the liberals taking over our public education and universities.]

I believe I lost a very good friend over that. I was shocked. But all he ever saw, outside our discussions was the MSM.
