Random election notes

[JohnStOnge]

I'll post others as I see them. Feel free to post your own. My first one is this:

It appears that it was not a high turnout election. At least it appears that the turnout relative to the size of the United States population was down. According to the site at http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php the total popular vote count as of now for 2016 is about 127 million. According to numbers at http://ropercenter.cornell.edu/polls/us ... ular-vote/ it was 131 million in 2008 and 129 million in 2012. Obviously the population is always growing. Things could change some as the 2016 total is finalized. But it's looking like the total turnout as a percent of the population and as a percent of registered voters is going to be down. I'm guessing that quantity will be down by about 5 percent.

That surprises me. Another tidbit: Trump's popular vote total is about 5.9 million short of what Obama got in 2012 and as of now is also short, by about 800,000, of what Romney got that year.

Again, the numbers will probably grow some. But I suspect his total as a percent of the population or as a percent of registered voters is going to end up being short of what Romney got. And it may end up short of what Romney got in absolute terms.

After the intense research I have done, Hillary received 5.7 less votes than what Obama got in 2012.

More than 6 million votes went to non-Dem/Rep in 2016.
That is up from a little more than 2 million votes in 2008 and 2012.

You need to check your math. I got 6.93 less.

I can vouch for this.

Only because Dback has chosen to take his crybaby ball and go home. He hasnt tried to strong arm and man handle me with his gestapo tactics like in years past. You know how much he likes man handling.

On the issue of what happened again: It looks like the Trump strategy described at http://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trum ... 1476221895 worked. The strategy was to depress the Democrat vote. Not in an illegal way. Psychological warfare. And I think he received unanticipated help in that regard by the events of the week of October 24 including Comey doing the "we found more e mails" thing.

The numbers will increase some. But right now it looks like Trump's win was not a matter of him being able to do better than Romney did in terms of getting people to vote for him. If I use the numbers reported by the article at http://www.wsj.com/articles/donald-trum ... 1476221895 that was last updated at 8:59 am Eastern Time today, Trump was at 60,071,650 votes. Romney got 60,934,000 (to the nearest thousand) in 2012. But the population then was about 97% of what it is now. So for Trump to get to where Romney was in terms of percent of population he'll have to get to about 62,800,000.

Meanwhile, though more people voted for Clinton than for Trump, she fell well short of what Obama got last time. She was at 60,467,245 at of this morning. Obama got 65,916,000 (to the nearest thousand) in 2012. She'd have to get to about 67,900,000 to equal that in terms of percent population.

It's just too bad Obama couldn't run for a third term. A year and a half ago there's no way I'd have thought I'd ever say anything like that but the Country would be better off right now if he could have.

There goes your "intellect" card...........BTW JSO, do you think anything can stop Trump's stock market? It's amazing how high it is......like a rocketship or Trump Train................there is no stopping it.

Great article.

Too bad not many Hillary people will even try to understand it.

Hillary's strategy of being a lying cvnt is what depressed Democratic voters (and made many of them go over to the Republican's side).

The DNC cheated to get Hillary to win the primary (by depressing the Bernie voters), and she got what she sowed.

I think "sup" instead of "de" is what you want at the beginning of those words. As in supper. Which means dinner. Which, by the way, I'll have steak. NY Strip. Medium rare. With a side of gluten.
