But Nixon had a major clear advantage over Humphrey in the electoral college
If Trump was given the kind of ground game Hillary did
He would have easily won
I think Wallace took a bit from Nixon's vote.
I'm not sure about that
@FLanon slight popular vote margins can result in large electoral college margins
That is an untrue statement
The kind of people who vote for Trump are the ones who know already
Hillary campaign knocked on way more doors, made way more phone clals
The Trump campaign really could've done more GOTV yeah.
I mean, technically you can win 49 states and lose the popular vote
I don't think so
But the thing is that GOTV for WWC is basically done by unions.
If we had that level of activism we would have done much better
So he needed to expand his union support for that really
Nevada, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Maine, etc would have flipped
Trump's not the kind of person you knock down a door for and appeal to moderacy, either you're on the train or you're not.
And for the millions of people who aren't registered?
I don't think they'd vote for Trump
You'd be surprised
Even if just 5% of non voters in Nevada got out and voted for Trump.
The fact is we need to do all this sort of stuff to increase turnout.
He would have easily flipped the state
Of course
He won
I just don't think it's as vital as it's made out to be
I think 1-3% is more realistic.
Get over it
Huh?
Why are you bitching
Am I not allowed to make legitimate critiques just because he won?
Things can always be improved upon
You can but your arguments are pretty shit
How?
Hindsight is 20/20
The fact is if you want a better ground game you should donate to the campaign
Okay?
We don't know where we should have campaigned for until the results come out.
We don't really do much of that here--but you're welcome to do that.
I already do donate
