Yes, plus 2 mill more, but in us system the states, not the people directly, choose the president. She had to win more states to be elected as each state is awarded a number of electors. This basically means the voice in California doesn’t have as much power as the one in Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijah Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 3 hours ago, ULIZOS said: They are right and Trump is leading in Ohio and Florida, so it's more likely than not that he will win another 4 years. Popular vote doesn't matter in the US. I know, but even if Biden looses Ohio and Florida, according to the polls he will win Arizona, Pennsylvania and Michigan where Biden has comfortable lead and he will be elected president. Not to mention he has real chance in Georgia and other southern states too (leads currently). In reality, if polls are right, Biden should win the most battleground states. Unfortunately the polls said the same thing in 2016, but Hillary led in less states. But she lost most states she had a small lead in. She lost Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan etc. I think unfortunately Trump has many shy supporters who are probably not declaring they would vote for him and in this way he could still win. It wouldn’t shock me if the polls are wrong and they could be for this reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pithy Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Al Gore won the popular vote back in 2000 as well. It's surreal to think of how different the entire world may be if the very antiquated electoral college system had long ago ceased to exist in the United States. It thwarts progress, giving disproportionate power to red states with smaller populations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VogueMusic Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 I am SO over this "Biden is too old/slow/weak" perspective. You're telling me that a morbidly obese, 70+ year old, on plenty of medication, whose sociopathic personality, death cult mentality, and anti-science arrogance got his own ass infected with Covid - and has left the rest of us for dead from day one - is still a better look than Biden? GTFO. And the only reason why he's probably still going right now is because they're pumping him full of experimental drugs and steroids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention Dumb is mere 3 years younger and even after 70, 3 years are nothing. Practically they are the same age. Its just a lame excuse for some to justify voting for evil.

Jessica Rabbit Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 All these early voters do we knew if it’s spread out throughout the country or majority from California/NY where there is a big population? God i hope these polls r right Call me crazy but i think Donald Trump never got Covid it was to prove his point that we can live with it and most recover.

pithy Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Woodrow Wilson remained in office after suffering a stroke halfway through his second term. His wife did everything, better than he would've at his healthiest, and she should probably be recognized as a de facto first female president, but that's another issue. The point is that presidents can just be envoys. They don't do it all. I don't think Biden was ever particularly brilliant, nor ever much more than serviceable, but neither were plenty of others in that political lineage. But it doesn't always matter how brilliant you are anyway; you have to pander to constituents who wouldn't know greatness if it threw Hard Candy CDs in their faces. Biden doesn't rouse a thing in me, but what's important is that he's willing to work alongside the right people, including the seemingly promising Kamala Harris, for (more of) the right things. He could be sworn in and fuck off to bed for the next four years and the United States would still be in much better hands than it is with disgraceful Trump.

A few individuals shouldn't be allowed to control all the mass media of a country. It has been proven many times that media integrity is at risk in this case because these owners will control what people read to influence how they think. This is a very powerful (but very subtle) weapon against democracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
