“Several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” Becker said. “Which is telling me that this idea of the Trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to Trump, is certainly not the story.”
Nationally, the number of people who voted for Trump were only slightly ahead of those who supported the last Republican presidential candidate, Mitt Romney, in 2012.
But Becker said that while turnout in purple states like Florida and Pennsylvania had a slight uptick this year, at least 19 other states saw lower turnout rates compared with 2012, a scenario that is antithetical to presidential-year voting that tends to increase each cycle when an incumbent is not a part of the race.
According to Becker, turnout rates dropped by 1.3 percent in Iowa, 3 percent in Wisconsin and nearly 4 percent in Ohio in 2016, a combination that became a death knell for Clinton’s presidential hopes in areas where Obama performed well during his two terms.

The numbers don't lie. I assume men are idiots, but I thought even uneducated women would prefer not to have a molester running things.

Just an example, I am sure you can find similar numbers throughout the MidWest. If you actually bother to look at the numbers you will see that I'm not sexist, just very disappointed in them. I think you will be too.
I didn't vote this election - first time in my life. I just couldn't vote for Hillary/Kane. If it were Hillary/Bernie I would have.

Hillary by herself grated on my nerves, she was arrogant, she didn't even campaign in WI because she thought she had WI in the bag - hubris, arrogance.

Hillary came off as entitled instead of simply being gracious for the opportunity to even be considered POTUS.
