Here is the final popular vote count of the 2016 election just in case you want to feel bad

Most of the people who voted in the 2016 presidential election voted for Hillary Clinton. Donald Trump is the president-elect.

Here are the final numbers:

Clinton received 65,844,610 votes, or 48.2% of the total vote.

Trump received 62,979,636 votes, or 46.1% of the total vote. (That’s a difference of 2.86 million votes.)

The remaining 5.7% of the vote went to other candidates, like Gary Johnson, Jill Stein, Evan McMullin, and, I don’t know, write-ins for flesh-eating bacteria.

Constitutional republics in action.
