In 2016, a total of 128.7M votes were cast. The difference between Trump and Hillary was 2.9M votes. So, that works out to be 2.2% vote difference. And that type of tiny difference only mattered in probably 5 elections out of 58 presidential elections. But for 2016 that vote difference came a lot from just 2 cities, Los Angeles and New York City. Of which there are lots of illegals.
And so much so, those states have made efforts to give illegals, driver licenses. So Hillary perhaps didn't win by that much as there are a lot illegals with driver licenses and also illegally collecting social security. Hence, let's say that the vote is almost even.
Yet, let's look at Wyoming. That state has to got have some say in how America is run and who the president is. So at 3 electoral votes divided by 535 total electoral votes, that is like 0.5% of the total electoral vote percentage wise.
So those pushing for a national popular vote is basically denying small states like Wyoming to have almost no say in how America is run.
To already to drop from 0.5% to 0.0% shows you how much Democrats and the National Popular Vote movement care about the little guy in small town America. |
