Total non-Trump votes

[Beartracks]

This may be old news, but I never considered that the lack of a mandate for Trump doesn't just come from the fact that he lost the popular vote by nearly 3 million in the head-to-head with Hillary Clinton. All told, he lost by far more:

Trump: 62,979,879


Hillary: 65,844,954
Johnson: 4,488,919
Stein: 1,457,044
Write-ins: 1,103,554
McMullin: 705,902
Other: 453,664

Non-Trump: 74,054,037


Difference: (11,074,158)


Way more people voted for Trump to go away than to be President.

1. I never thought of that

I've never heard anyone refer to anything other than a 3-million-vote difference, either. Good point!

2. Looks like the voter fraud

was much more extensive than even Trump thought.

5. Yeah, pity we did all that in the wrong states...

3. What's the difference between write in's and other?

By that I mean, what's the distinction?

7. I took the categories from...

... an image I saw on twitter, but I couldn't link it here for some reason. I presume "Other" includes all the other even-lesser-known candidates with their hats tossed in the ring, and that "Write-ins" includes anyone who was not actually an official, filed candidate.

9. Trump is a squatter

He's not legitimate.

10. Dear Donald, 166,746,016 people

Didn't vote for you.

Don't forget to add in the eligible voters who couldn't be bothered.

14. K&R

DU is calming me down tonight.

Trump will say there were 11 million "illegal" votes.
