52.1% did not vote for clinton. the majority of the country didn't want clinton as their president.
I can't tell if you genuinely don't know how majorities work or what but I think you should know that 55.4% of eligible voters didn't even bother showing up the booth this year, so a majority of people didn't like any candidate

I'm not a fan of clinton either but you should probably work on your argument

Lmao there has never been a democratic (or equivalent, i know that 50 years ago democrats were today's republican) lose the majority vote but win the election. isn't that funny, how a system that is so 'fool proof' manages to tilt to one side when it does fail?

Honestly the electoral college is a somewhat good system but is prone to abuse. Using popular votes as a gauge for election is one of the most fool-proof voting mechanisms out there. You can't fake raw votes, and even if you can it probably happens so rarely that it has no affect on the election.

Interesting, but highly unlikely to succeed.

Personally, I think the Electoral College is a little antiquated now that inter-state communication is near instantaneous. Even on the night of the election, we got a pretty accurate look at the vote counts in real time.

listen dude nearly 1 million more poeple voted for hillary over Annoying Orange as of right now
right now its the minority controlling the majority
Yet liberals are OK with mondays running amok over whites.

yes the electoral college was designed in part to speed up the delivery of votes but there are other parts to its design as well. you can't use that as the only reason for why it should be removed

aren't we all mondays when less than 1% of our dna makes us white?


People keep posing the argument of "without the college, larger states will rule everything"
I understand the argument. I just don't agree with it.

The college basically gives my vote a stronger weight than the vote of someone in a larger state, like CA or FL.
But I don't believe my vote should be stronger that of a larger state's citizens

And I don't buy into the argument of protecting small towns, because the president isn't there to look out for individual small towns. For that, you have Congresspersons looking out for their districts. Individual districts elect their own Senators and Representatives to give them representation in Congress. No single man/woman (president) is going to be able to represent every district

I think it's pretty obvious that he meant "52.1% of voters"

my b for assuming, then


but 52.8% of voters didn't vote for Annoying Orange
therefore the majority voted for Clinton

funny, democrats are the ones who change the electoral college into the way it is today.

If they loving counted the electoral votes where the state doesn't win all, I'd be happy.

Like lets say the state of Cali has 10 electoral votes for Republican, and 45 for Democrats, Democrats only get 45, and not the entire 55 pot.


I'm in full support of the South Pole Squad being our leaders
sorry, this is who im supporting.
