Trump barely beat Harris.
Cuomo got crushed in this primary.
Trump by no means barely beat Harris, she and Clinton were both around 220 votes and Trump has an easy 300.
The electrical college will always look different ways because winner takes all voting. It's all that matters at the end, but a 1.5% change in the voters would have flipoed most of the battleground states. It was closer than many make it out to be
The fact that "closer" can be so diametrically opposed indicates a failure in the system.
If it was close we'd have gotten, I don't know, Mitt Romney or somebody.
But the winner-take-all aspect means we get the dumbest, ugliest fascists ever. Just for a 1.5% difference.
This is what a broken system looks like.
bro trump cheated the second time lmao.
