Thats how elections work everywhere in the world... Wtf are you talking about?
*How First past the post elections work
Places with proportional representation have parliaments with representatives from a wide range of parties that have to cooperate with each other rather than constantly undermine each other.
And this is first across the finish line politics. Want change? Endorse pluralist elections.
Party loyalists hate this message and would rather you just say, "vote blue no matter who". But I'm with you. I'm tired of having to hold my nose in the polling booth every time. End first past the post elections.
Anyone got a source for these numbers?
How many of those who didn't vote were from the states where Democrats won?
How many were from swing states?
How many were from Red states?
In an electoral college based election these nuances matter.
Sounds like we need to run someone some of those 36% would be willing to vote for. Voting against the other isn't working anymore.
Also would go further into pointing out... of those 31.74% that did vote for it... it's not a mandate for things that he didn't run on... or even ran against.
Say trump took a shit ton of credit for promising to never cut social security and medicaid. When his mind changes from what he promised, the "mandate" arguement is even worse.
In a hypothetical world where lets say someone did run, promised a lot of things, and won with 98% of the vote, so that we could say they have a mandate. The mandate still only would apply to the things they actually claimed they were going to do on the campaign trail. If they are doing the opposite of what they promised the mandate is completely bullshit even in that scenerio.
Ah yes there was someone saying 1 in 2 people voted for Trump and yeah nope...
Hitler also got roughly the same third of votes...
Turnout is low when votes don't matter and voters get suppressed when their vote does matter. This is working as designed.
