Numbers From the Presidential General Election

___After getting these numbers, it appears to me that the Founding Fathers, in creating the Electoral College, had more wisdom than they are being given credit by the Green Party Candidate, the Clinton Campaign and a group of washed-up Hollywood "celebrities" who have, in one way or another, tried to overturn the General Elections results.

___There are 3,141 counties in the United States. Trump won 3,084 of them; Clinton won 57.

___There are 62 counties in New York State. Trump won 46 of them; Clinton won 16.

___Clinton won the popular vote by about 1.5 million votes (the extra votes won by Trump after that recount not withstanding).

___In the five counties that encompass New York City (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond and Queens) Clinton received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. Clinton won four of the counties; Trump won Richmond. These four counties alone more than accounted for Clinton winning the popular vote of the entire country.

___These 5 counties comprise 319 square miles. The United States is comprised of 3,797,000 square miles. When you have a country that encompasses almost 4 million square miles of territory, in my opinion it would be ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those who inhabit a mere 319 square miles should dictate the outcome of a national election.

___Large, densely populated cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc) don't and shouldn't speak for the rest of our country. Yes, these are Democrat-controlled cities - maybe the reason for all the efforts to overturn the General Election. However, I would feel the same way - the Electoral College made the election the real will of our citizens. Clinton did not win the popular vote of the United States - she won the popular vote of New York City.

___I took an oath to defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, both foreign and domestic, and to obey the lawful orders of the President of the United States. The candidate for whom I voted didn't always win; but, I supported the elected Commander-in-Chief always no matter who was elected. In recent years I have voted more against a candidate than for a candidate. This General Election as one of them - I voted against the corrupt one. In the local election all candidates were so bad for two offices that I wrote in Mickey Mouse and Snow White rather than cast a vote for either low-life, corrupt individual.

___I just heard that the Constitution was upheld. Trump won the Electoral College vote. Sorry, whiners. All of us must follow the law. If we don't like a law - or an aspect of our Constitution - there is a legal process for change. No whining is not that lawful process.

___I still am waiting for Streisand, Sharpton and others to fulfill their promises and move to Canada. Sorry Canada.
