Clinton wins New Hampshire’s 4 Electoral College votes
Then argue for your position.
Demonstrators march to protest against Donald Trump in Los Angeles on November 12, 2016. Actually, it was rigged more than 200 years ago. John McCain, his opponent in 2008, to stop fighting health-care reform because “the election is over”.
According to a report in the Daily Mail, Bill Clinton was frustrated at his wife and her closest advisers for not aggressively pursuing white, middle-class Americans.
The electoral college was established by our founding fathers in Article Two of The United States Constitution, as a way to appoint our President and Vice-President.
Given that the Republicans control the House and the Senate in the next Congress, an unlikely possible outcome would be that enough faithless electors put Trump’s tally below the 270 votes needed to win the Electoral College vote. It’s time to reconsider the Electoral College. “They change because you work for it”. By filtering the public’s votes into state-by-state races, the Electoral College introduces vast disproportionality into the electoral system, allowing small states to carry more weight than their population size merits.
The results in MI still remain undecided, but the Great Lake State’s 16 electoral votes would not change the White House race’s outcome. Some anxious that election by popular vote would give high population states too much power.
Therefore, California is worth 55 electoral votes. Yes, we’re talking about Hillary Clinton’s unexpected loss. The Electoral College was a compromise – individual votes mattered, but those votes were slotted by state.
The interim chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) veteran political operative Donna Brazile, assumed the position temporarily following the resignation of Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schulz, criticised for influencing the primary process to help Clinton win over Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, Efe news reported. In 1836, while Martin Van Buren won the presidential election outright, almost two dozen faithless electors refused to vote for Van Buren’s vice presidential running mate, Richard Mentor Johnson.
Most supporters realize Donald Trump has shown propensities to be most unartful in his expressions and choice of words and phrases and that has been polarizing and unfortunate. Perhaps most surprising of all, given some of Trump’s comments about immigration, Clinton also failed to match Obama’s 2012 support among Latinos, winning 65 percent of the votes to his 71 percent. The combined Republican and Libertarian vote was 50.59 percent. CNN at that time showed a Clinton-over-Trump margin of 668,059, while the Associated Press had a margin of 668,483. Worst of all not just for Latinos but for others, Trump is and will continue to give support for the more open expression of white supremacist attitudes and racist views towards minorities, including Muslims and immigrants, plus promoting misogynist views toward women.
