Hillary lost the popular vote.

The fact is that the majority of Americans will have the minority shoving their dogmatic policies down their throats, thanks to this retarded college that was elected by the minorities. Trump has started displaying his Presidential qualities or lack of it by once again stating that the elections were rigged and more Americans voted for him. That's why the right wingers are buying it. Hilarious!!
fuji,...get off what ever you are sniffing,...
,...."You have already said you think the election was not a tie",...wow,...you finally figured that out,...232 to 306.
,..."and it was won by a smaller margin than Clinton's lead in the popular vote",...another of your bull shit lies fuji,...I have never said that the 306 is less than .6% more than 232,....if you want me to help you out with what % 306 is more than 232,...please let me know.
Mean while,...get help dude,...seriously.

Nice try being dishonest and using the electoral college vote margin but it's the state by state vote that got Trump elected and his actual margin of victory in the three closest States that won him the EC was far smaller than Clinton's popular vote lead.
You really are just showing us how twisted up you become trying to avoid admitting you were wrong.
A normal person would have ended this with "yeah I guess Clinton did win the popular vote, it wasn't a tie" but instead your are contorting yourself in amusing ways trying to avoid admitting your error.

Speaking of "buying it" did you return the bottle of champagne the main stream media convinced you to get for Hillary Clintons win?
Grade school math begins with counting. Tallying votes is a matter of counting. All the way from the first vote to the last vote, the 'math' is just a matter of going on to the next number in the line. Even after you add the individual counts from individual polls, there is no 'margin of error' in counting. That's why — and you can look it up in any election or voting law you choose — an election can be decided by a single vote. Or by a coin toss if the count is a two-way tie. Just like getting your money from the bank, the only acceptable margin of error is 0%.
That simplest version of arithmetic is the 'math' you're blathering on about: just a real world grown-up version of counting your fingers. You're so keen on margins of error, count yours and tell us what's your error rate when you do that? Plus or minus 10% three times outta five?
Now about the meaning and importance of popular vote vs. the Electoral College: In every state it is the popular vote that dictates to the Electors how they must vote. In most of the states if you win the popular vote (even by a single vote) all the Electors are required to vote for you, as if your opponent hadn't ever run at all. In a handful of states Electors are required to vote according to the popular vote. No Electors get to vote as they prefer.
You like math: Winning by just one vote in each of 49 States would give someone an overwhelming majority in the College for their 'popular majority' of just 49 voters. Even if their opponent got every single vote in that last state.
I'm sure you followed the steps, tell us that's democratic. Whether that last state was Wyoming who could only give the 'loser' a 250,000 vote overall majority, or California with 14,000,000 votes for the loser the College isn't affected. Howcum those 49 individual votes aren't ignored as one of your 'rounding errors'? Far from it, they actually trump the thousands or millions of votes in the majority. Seems to me a result where 49 votes >14,000,000 votes would make the US a perverted 'arithmetocracy'. But you must like that kinda stuff; it's what you're supporting.

PS: If the President himself hadn't opined that, not only was the election rigged before he won it, but now even that result is untrustworthy because of numerous millions of illegal votes I'd have ignored your nonsense. Sorry. He says it's important.
You post in public, you get replies in public. You can ignore them, but you cannot command them not to appear.
Don't tell us, its on the tip of your tongue and you'll remember who it was in a few minutes.
I quoted you. Everyone with eyes can see that you called the popular vote a tie, but that you don't think the elections in WI, MI, and PA were a tie.
You just continue punching yourself in the face. All your other right wing buddies have conceded that Clinton won the popular vote and have responded to that in other ways.
You stand alone in denying the facts and it's makes you look silly.
Yes I did state that the popular vote was a tie.
But I did NOT state that the any other votes were a tie,...you are simply lying ,...again.
A question for you AGAIN,...do you know exactly what the popular vote count was,...and how,...???

DUH,...no fuji,...this thread is about the popular vote for the whole country,...not your cherry picking state votes.
And,...you lie again,...I did NOT state,.."that a vote won by an even smaller margin was not a tie",...you said that.
