“The ‘Landslide’ That Wasn’t: Trump and Allies Pump Up His Narrow Victory
The latest vote count shows that Donald J. Trump won the popular vote by one of the smallest margins since the 19th century. But Mr. Trump claims a ‘powerful mandate.’ “ - NY Times
With counting still occurring Trump won’t even get a plurality of the votes cast. He’ll beat Harris by about 1.5%.
1/3 of Americans didn’t vote. In WA State participation of under 35’s dropped 8.5%. Trump didn’t get a ‘mandate’, he got apathy.
