View Poll Results: Does Clinton's Popular Vote Victory Reduce Trump's Mandate?
YES. Trump's vote count is too low to be a mandate for sweeping change. 70 27.89%
NO. Trump won, and that's reason enough for a mandate for sweeping change. 125 49.80%
DOESN'T MATTER. The mandate concept is too vague to mean anything. 56 22.31%
Voters: 251. You may not vote on this poll

Default Clintons Popular Vote Lead

Clinton's popular vote lead can be contributed entirely to California . Without California Trump is way ahead in the popular vote . Does all the people screaming that Clinton won really believe the whole country should be ruled by far left California ? Are the radical liberals in one state more important than the whole rest of the country ? I say , HELL NO !!!

Not to mention that her lead is composed of those that committed voter fraud, including illegals that voted.

There are unsubstantiated claims that up to 3 million non-citizens voted in the last presidential election. No doubt that non-citizens voted especially in states with large immigrant populations and very liberal politics.


Congress should pass a law that only those who are verified US citizens can vote in elections. Also that the census can only count US citizens for the purpose of re-apportionment. Now, everyone living in an area (legal and illegal) is counted in the census and immigrants can and do distort congressional districts, giving more districts to states with large non-citizen immigrant populations like CA..

Without said 'document' you have no voice. You are a subject.

Democrats would have to target conservative states as well. I think making a change would be a good idea for America.

To put everything in perspective there millions of Republican votes didn't count in CA, NY, etc. And the same thing happened for conservative states

He could be right, but i think net votes would be different. I mean, Democrats dont exactly campaign in the South or Mountain west, what happens when they visit there, wouldnt they pick up votes.

Look at places like Colorado and Nevada. Once Democrats made a play there and stuck to it(not leaving when the election was over), it seems to have proven that Democrats could change minds there.
