[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm voting for Trump. So is a majority of the country.[/quote]

Hahahaha.  You're funny.  And you really don't know what you're talking about.

Trump has now lost the popular vote twice.  He has never made it over 47% of the popular vote.  And he's lost votes since the last two times he ran for President.  There is absolutely no way that he wins the majority of the country.  I think he'll be lucky to get 45% of the vote this time around.

That said, he could win the election the same way he did in 2016, by the quirks of our electoral college whereby the people of low population states like Montana have significantly more election power than the people of high population states like California or New York.  The electoral college allows small numbers of people in the very sparsely populated states to swing elections.  Trump lost the popular vote by over 2% in 2016 (nearly 3M votes) and he won by about 77K votes in 4 districts that allowed him to swing an electoral college win.

His win in 2016 was because the Clinton campaign made huge mistakes by not canvassing and visiting these smaller rural locations where extra electoral votes were won.  Biden did not make the same mistake in 2020.  His campaign paid attention to where Trump was trying to get electoral wins and they covered those same districts and prevented Trump from the same sneak attack that won the 2016 election.  I expect that Biden's campaign will once again close the door to these sneaky electoral vote wins and that once again Biden will win both the popular and the electoral vote.

But there is virtually zero chance of "the majority" voting for Trump.[/quote]
