I would like to point out that the popular vote is still being counted and Trump is less than 1/2 a percent behind her. He could very well take the popular vote after all the ballots are counted.

Less then 1% of the votes aren't counted. Sorry, but its not looking like he will win the popular vote.
With the amount of cheating, lieing, and corruption the Dems pulled off this election, I suspect those extra votes for Hillary are from voter fraud.
This wouldn't surprise me at all. She's ahead in the popular vote by a whopping 0.2%, which can easily be achieved through voter fraud, be it illegal aliens and dead people voting, or even people voting more than once.
Um no....she did win the popular vote. Of the voters who turned out, she won more than Trump did. End of discussion. That is what "popular vote" means. This is a factual statement. She won the popular vote but lost the election due to the electoral college.
Now would she have won the most votes if voter turnout was 100% instead of 55%? We have no way of knowing...
This is meaningless. The candidates played for the electoral vote, not the popular vote. This is like a basketball team claiming that they won the game because they claimed more rebounds than points. They played for points, not rebounds. And the candidates played for the electoral vote, not the popular. And that's that.

Exactly. You can't look at these results and say "if it weren't for the Electoral College, Hillary would have won." Maybe, but maybe not. The rules of the game influence how the players play. In a "popular vote winner takes all"' scenario, the candidates would have campaigned differently and many voters would have voted differently. I know I would have voted differently.

Sorry, California doesn't get to decide who's President.
