[quote="gothprincesskiara"]ok, I didnt read every comment but I think Everyone here is not realizing what really happened and forgive me if you already said it, but my mom and my best friend has told me that it was all because not enough people voted, and this is exactly what I feared, when people say to VOTE, there attitude is, either, dont blame me I voted for Hillary, or I will not vote for either one of them, or Oh Hillary is so gonna win I dont need to vote cause my vote wont count.[/quote]
I didn't vote, because I could see bad arguments erupting between my mother and I had I voted for who I wanted (Hillary), and I also didn't want to vote for Trump.
And honestly, I can't help but feel like had I voted for Hillary, it wouldn't have mattered. I live in California, which isn't even close to being a swing state, so had I voted for electoral college officials, it would not have changed the outcome either. The entirety of hell will freeze over before California votes red.
It wasn't the popular vote that got Trump into office, it was the electoral college of states I don't live in.
