You righties are always "so sure" about everything. ...

And you "leftists" knew that Hillary was a shoe-in for the whitehouse.

Yeah yeah


For sure, we underestimated the amount of minority voter suppression
Repub governors would be able to inflict in their states. Still at the
moment, Hillary leads the popular vote by nearly 2.7 million.

Here's an interesting stat:

Electoral College Math

The population of California is about 38,800,000.
The population of Wyoming is about 584,153.

California has 55 electoral college votes.
Wyoming has 3 electoral college votes.

It takes 705,454 Californians to equal 1 electoral college vote.

It takes 194,717 Wyomingites to equal 1 electoral college vote.

That makes every vote in Wyoming worth 362% what each vote from
California is worth in the election for President of the United States.

And that electoral college imbalance is a consequence of placating the
Southern states when the union was being formed in order to help those
states out with their slavery problem.

I doubt Trump will last long in the presidency.


Probably a lot longer than you'd like or hope.

BTW, here's one of your election math links you didn't feel was worth providing...

And over half of California geographically voted for Trump, and have no
representation in. Our EC votes.
