Keep your eyes on Somerville. I don't know a lot about the city itself, but it's mayor has decided to use his position to enforce his ultra liberal agenda at all costs.

He wants to be seen as the progressive mayor and appears to love being in the news for the controversial decisions that he makes. He seems to be so concerned with making headlines, one has to wonder what is going on behind the scenes.

I hope I'm wrong, but I would not be surprised if his extreme liberalism isn't going to bury the city financially.

Three dozen citiEs plan to defy trump.

Move to Kansas if you don't like it. We gonna be fine here. Leave

2.9 million more votes than the second place finisher = fact

Like trump himself Boris MUST keep spinning it in an attempt to defy the obvious conclusion. Trump wasn't the citizens' first choice. PERIOD. No judgment. Just fact

The candidate must get at least 270 electoral votes in all to win the election.

Or "I know we lost the game badly, but we were the better team, we outplayed them"

Loser double talk. The Dems seem to have amnesia about how the Electoral College works. Seems like they were all experts until Nov 8. All I heard was how difficult the "path to 270" was going to be for Trump. They had colored all of the states blue and assumed HRC was going to win 270 easily.

Now it is about the popular vote? Talk about moving the goalposts! Let's now discuss whether Trump has a "mandate". With control of Congress, I say he does!

Mandate? Who cares? More fuzzy, feel good crapola from the Left.

P.S. I think Larry needs to come out of the closet and go on a different kind of Man Date. A lot of sexually perversion coming from that dude.

get up to speed on the Electoral - 1 Slave=3/5vote

At least you understand HRC popular vote by 3M actual citizens who were disenfranchised.
Can't imagine 68M majority will just cooperate counter to their interests.

Electoral College: 1 Slave = 3/5 Vote

The reason racism , misogyny , xenophobia are constantly brought up is because they are used as the basis to maintain rule.

---- get up to speed on the Electoral
At the Philadelphia convention, the visionary Pennsylvanian James Wilson proposed direct national election of the president. But the savvy Virginian James Madison responded that such a system would prove unacceptable to the South: “The right of suffrage was much more diffusive [i.e., extensive] in the Northern than the Southern States; and the latter could have no influence in the election on the score of Negroes.” In other words, in a direct election system, the North would outnumber the South, whose many slaves (more than half a million in all) of course could not vote. But the Electoral College—a prototype of which Madison proposed in this same speech—instead let each southern state count its slaves, albeit with a two-fifths discount, in computing its share of the overall count.



Virginia emerged as the big winner—the California of the Founding era—with 12 out of a total of 91 electoral votes allocated by the Philadelphia Constitution, more than a quarter of the 46 needed to win an election in the first round. After the 1800 census, Wilson’s free state of Pennsylvania had 10% more free persons than Virginia, but got 20% fewer electoral votes. Perversely, the more slaves Virginia (or any other slave state) bought or bred, the more electoral votes it would receive. Were a slave state to free any blacks who then moved North, the state could actually lose electoral votes.

If the system’s pro-slavery tilt was not overwhelmingly obvious when the Constitution was ratified, it quickly became so. For 32 of the Constitution’s first 36 years, a white slaveholding Virginian occupied the presidency.

Donald Trump refused to say that he’d respect the results of this election.

That’s a direct threat to our democracy.

///////////////////

I happen to like the way it's structured, as otherwise NY and California will decide every election (until, of course California secedes...then the Dems have zero chance); but, the reality is the system for electing a president was utilized, and the results are in. The rest really doesn't matter.

How do we know if the popular vote mattered, campaigning would've been different? You don't...so, we go with the known variables: Electoral votes are the only thing that matters, and he ran accordingly.

Don't like it? Do something productive for once and work for a change. The rest of us have business to tend to.

I missed the outrage at this racist, sexist and xenophobic system in 2008 and 2012. Could this be false outrage from the Left because it didn't go their way? I think so!

I've been following this story. A couple of things jumped out at me:

First, she lied because her family would've been intolerant to her social activities and dating a Christian...

Second, her brother was upset that she was even investigated for lying....

If lying and defamation were a crime in the US, groper-in-chief would be on death row.

Now it's a prerequisite for government employment. Sheesh. Talk about swamp critters.

Exactly!

You are getting so smaht. My time on here is paying off.

The popular vote determined the election. Yeay. You win. Unlike 2000 - when there should have been enough determination to do away with this outdated racially bigoted amendment.

We will give the nutters that their strategy was successful so it will be IMITATED over and over again. Alinsky smiling down .....
