Cast of Hamilton has terrible record of actually showing up to vote


Many members of Congress have a terrible record of actually showing up to vote.

Your point?

funny. posters on a anonymous forum are supposed to 'get over it', but not the whiners who instigated the hamilton whine-fest in the first place.

how odd...

Point taken, and you are correct. My math may be wrong, but a few quick calculations show me that to be correct, I should have stated that HRC's comments show that only 14% of the population is included in the "basked of deplorables". That would come out to about 30.17 million people. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong with my calculations.

In thinking about your very correct observation that only 55% of eligible people voted, in an election of this consequence, featuring candidates with such vastly different views, one could almost think the "basket of deplorables" should be expanded to include those who didn't take the time to vote without a very good reason. I think it's a certainly we should include in said "basket", those who didn't like the result, but didn't take the time to vote. If it's such a important issue who won to the complainers, they certainly should have voted, no ?
