Poll: Most Republican voters believe Donald Trump won the popular vote
Chris Walker December 19, 2016 https://mic.com/articles/162672/poll-mo ... .zSRpgXFgl

More than half of all Republicans wrongly believe that Donald Trump won the popular vote for president, according to a recent poll released by Qualtrics polling and the Washington Post.
Fifty-two percent of Republicans polled said they believe Trump won the popular vote, while 24% of independents say he won and just 7% of Democrats believe he did. Overall, 29% of Americans believe Trump was the overall preference of all American voters.

Here's what really happened

In reality, Trump lost to Hillary Clinton in the popular vote. Current totals from the Cook Political Report vote tracker put Clinton's popular vote margin at about 2.86 million ahead of Trump. But because the president is selected by the Electoral College, Trump will become the next commander-in-chief, becoming just the fifth person to do so without winning the plurality of the popular vote.

Democrats Need To Win Elections, Not Flip Electors, By Nate Silver
(- -)
This year, there’s been a movement afoot to encourage electors to vote for someone other than Trump in an effort to deny him the presidency. If at least 37 Trump-pledged electors were to do this, it would deny any candidate a majority3 and the election would be determined by the House of Representatives, which would choose from among the top three finishers. For example, if 30 Trump electors defected to Pence and another 10 defected to Ohio Governor John Kasich, the House would choose among Trump (266 electoral votes), Clinton (232) and Pence (30).

Trump sai vaivatta kokoon enemmistö, 270 valitsijaa. Vastoin ennakkoa, "uskottomia" näytti olevan enemmän Clintonin (Washington, Maine?) kuin Trumpin (Teksasissa 2) valitsijamiehissä.

Jussi Lähde (Leikola ja Lähde) ennusti loka-marraskuun vaihteessa 2016, että Trump saa enemmän ääniä mutta vähemmän valitsijamiehiä. Muut ohjelmassa ennustivat Clintonin voittoa ilman spesifikaatioita.

Pirkko Pöntinen onnistui munaamaan taas, kun hän toi TV:ssä esiin, että äänet lasketaan vasta loppiaisena. (Tuolloin tulos vahvistetaan kongressin erityisistunnossa.)

"Uskottomia" http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-was ... cid=SigDig
Despite a statute binding the 12 members of the electoral college to vote for the winner of the state’s 2016 presidential election popular vote, four Washington electors made history and risked a $1,000 fine by voting for someone else Monday. But it wasn’t Donald Trump.
Hillary Clinton, supported by 57% of the state’s voters, wound up with eight of the 12 electoral votes at a session held in the State Capitol building here. - Gen. Colin Powell received three votes. And Faith Spotted Eagle, an elder of the Yankton Sioux, received one. [PP]

The separate vote for vice president drew some raised eyebrows as well. Clinton’s running mate, Tim Kaine, received eight votes. The other four went to Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.) and Winona LaDuke, a Native American activist.
