Look at the map! It's all red as usual but this time the rural folks spoke out big time!

It's truly sad that the big city minority vote has been lately picking our Presidents. Just take a look at the nation's map colors and blue pockets of Democrat votes. These big cities are the make up of the Democrat party. This is why our nation is so divided.

Most of the Democrat votes are from the big cities in each state. The States are made up of mostly red counties, and then you will see the big cities being all blue.

Look at Pennsylvania! The entire State is red until you look at Philadelphia area with all their big city minority vote. Pennsylvaia hs been electing Democrats for a long time now even though most of the state is Red.

Finally the ignored middle class working families all over our nation, will be taken seriously, and maybe corrupt politicians will actually respect our voice and our votes.

People like you aren't well rounded. People like you support Trump. What lies do they tell?

The Nation spoke!

For 6 of the last 7 elections - including last night - the popular vote went to the Democrat.

It was establushed to protect all the people in equal representation.

To avoid "mob rules" of the big cities.

We are not a democracy. We are a republic.

And the electoral college assures us that California cant control every election by population.

Please!

Common sense. Dense! The spirit of this age is density of darkness making unreasonable minds. Unless you repent, it will be seared as if with a branding iron!

It is the mark of the beast. Any physical mark if follows is just a natural representation of what has already spiritually occured!

The popular vote does not matter it is the electoral college vote that elects the president.

Are you dumb enough to believe that our votes should be based on population density?

You do realize that the electoral college was originally established to mediate the voting constituency expressly because the founding fathers did not trust the intelligence of the average voter (and that was a fairly restrictive demographic already). It's origins are literally an antithesis to democracy. But okay, sure, questioning its validity is "majorly dumb".

It's absolutely true that the cities, which are where the cluster of heterogenity and the higher educated and the minorities are concentrated, have been voting Democrat, and the rural areas with homogeneity and lower education, have been voting Republican.

Is that wrong?

Instead, doesn't it make you a little nervous that the places drawing the big melting pot of Americans all want one thing and the places which look and act like it's decades ago want the other?

Or let me ask this another way. Despite rural America's support for Trump, can you name one property he owns and visits and lives in which lands squarely in a county that voted red? Even one? I don't think you'll find it. Because even though you think he was your champion he doesn't want to visit or do business in any of your communities. His entire world before, during, and after this election, rests squarely in the blue voting zones. Go figure.

The urban-rural political divide is hardly surprising news. We've known this for a while. That most of the space on a map is red does not mean rural areas are under-represented. In fact, the electoral college means that rural areas are over-represented since the minimum electoral college count for a state being three causes less densely populated states to have a higher voter to electoral college vote proportion.
