If you take out 2 cites, LA and Manhattan, Trump won the popular. I am glad we have the electoral college. If we go to a popular vote which will never happen, there will be no reason of anyone to vote.
Whats all this the polls were rigged stuff?
- Thread starter wildchild
- Start date
You thought that there was a 100% chance that Hillary would win the presidency due to the polls.
Hillary was a bad candidate,did run a bad campaign and didn't campaign in the correct states.She did however get more votes like the national polls said she would and she was screwed by a system that allows 108,000 votes from 3 states overrule 3 million votes nationally.
Because in 228 years only 4 times did a candidate win without the popular vote I did indeed believe that.
As long as LA and Manhattan are part of the US their votes shouldn't be taken out.
What are you basing that on? Why are state polls not reliable? What do you believe is going on at the state level that makes them not as reliable as the national? Corruption? bias? Incompetence? If any of these things, then sure they exist for the national level too.
So 10% of the time and you thought it couldn't happen again? You're on a trading website. Surely you have some basic understanding of statistics.
I do which is why I believed what happens 90% of the time would happen in 2016.I didn't think it couldn't happen just very unlikely.

For starters most of them are done by different polling companies and non polling companies like colleges and news stations polling part time.
Go learn polling and survey methodology pal.
