Unfortunately for Hillary, a majority wasn't good enough.
I wonder if the US will move to change the archaic electoral college system ???

Whatever majorities, minorities, sub groups etc. were involved, it's a terrible result. Now we have Kim Jong-un, Trump and Putin.

Just saw that on the news. Looked more like a bunch of spoiled brats spitting the dummy and stamping their feet because they didn't get what they wanted.
Re: US Presidential Election 2016 - Lods - 11-10-2016
The riots and protests will die out soon enough.
Just folk that won't accept a democratic process...rather bizarre really....when they would have been the first to condemn Trump for not accepting the result.
As for changing the electoral college system...it ain't going to happen

Even if "faithless electors" abstain or vote against the wishes of their state's majority? It last happened in 2004, in a largely symbolic protest.

Yes a lot of people do not realise she won the primary vote by a comfortable margin.

Read that Trump had 4 times the Latino vote...? :o

It happens under our system too.
Beazley's ALP got more votes than Howard's LNP on the two party preferred in 1998 but lost the election (80 seats to 67)
(Joh used to win in Qld with just his, Flo's and Russ Hinze's vote)

It reminds me of Gillard's problems.
- Women didn't want a woman!
- Latino's don't want other Latino immigrants!
- Muslim's do not trust Muslim immigrants!
The myths are self-perpetuating, so they vote Trump!
The feminist media are blaming men for Clinton's demise, but it was middle-aged or elderly white women that abandoned Clinton at the poles! The very people that should have been her cornerstone wanted Sanders and voted Trump in his absence!
Reminds me of the history of the US Women's Suffrage movement, some of the biggest Anti-Suffrage supporters were women!
