If you take out California and NYC, she loses the popular vote as well.
that's why we have the EC system and thank the Founding Fathers for that, if not all California and NYC had to do is to overflow their state and cities with immigrants and have them under their welfare control and they will have lots of political power in choosing our President, all presidential candidates have to go and kiss their behinds and offer them more free stuff......California is lost for Republicans. That state gives legal status to any immigrant, Driver's license, free education, social services and protection from federal enforcement on immigration.
Now, Daywalk, all you have to do is convince just 20% of the democrat voting population in these five states to pick up and move to a swing state and IF you succeed at that, you will never have to suffer another harrowing experience like the one you are right now! Easy task, right?
Do you know how many conservative voters in liberal strongholds like California didn't even waste their time voting because they knew their vote would be a lost cause? The only reason this Trump voter wasted his time voting in liberal dominated Oregon was because very little time was wasted. I just licked an envelope and mailed it. Had I had to stand in line for two hours I would have passed.
Let it go already. Your hatred is going to consume you.
California?? No......try just only 6 counties in the entire country (3 mil between Los Angeles county and the 5 counties of New York city)...that is where all of her popular lead is....
lol that's hilarious.... Clinton won the popular vote in 33 of 58 California Counties, but since you now want to play the "ooh look at all the Counties Trump won" game, let's look at the population of some of the counties your 'fearless leader' won:
Loving County Texas 64
Esmeralda County Nevada 784
Garfield County Montana, 1206
Carter County Montana 1160
Arthur County Nebraska 460
Sierra County California 3075
So, the little game of "oooh look how many counties Trump won" ends up being a joke, as does the fake narrative about how she ONLY won the popular vote in 6 counties in the entire country...did you ever ask yourself how that could be since she won the popular vote in 20 states?
Just switch what? 80,000 votes, and Clinton wins the Electoral.
Your point?
Trump won the electoral college. The narrative since Clinton lost is that she won the popular election. If you look at her lead, it's solely because of California. Trump won the combined popular vote in the other 49 states. Her lead in California is huge. One reason is that California is so far Left, republicans simply don't vote. Another is the polls had Clinton winning without California. And then there is the time difference. In the past there were elections called before the polls closed in California. A national lead based solely on the votes of California isn't impressive given all those factors.
Break it down further: Clinton only won the national vote because of the votes from eight counties in California. The reason we have an EC is as important today as it was 200+ years ago.
The popular vote is irrelevant and furthermore the constant whining from her supporters is pathetic ignorance. She lost.

How do you know that? Or are you just assuming that is the case?
