    The majority of Americans couldn't even be bothered to vote. Don't try to redeem America's choice by saying the popular vote went to Hillary. More than half of eligible Americans didn't even bother.

    Over 5 million votes went towards Jill and Gary, a number much greater than that didn't vote at all.

    That's not the number I've heard, I've heard that 46% of people didn't vote. That's not more than half.

    You don't know everyone's reason for not voting. Mine was because not only would my vote not count, but I don't want any of the candidates in power.

    It's amazing that people had the gall to call Trump fans irrational uneducated people...and this is what Hillary fans are doing when they didn't get their corrupt witch into office.

    Care to rephrase that?

    I don't see Warren running, you have even less control and agenda as a president than you do as a senator.

    How does your vote not count?

    Guess what? One of them is going to be in power, whether you all want it or not. So pick one, and fucking vote. I don't see why people talk about majorities when half the nation didn't even vote. On those grounds, no-one can claim that the election EVER represents the majority of America and is therefore legitimate, just the majority of VOTING America. It is ridiculous that voting is not compulsory.

    Because there is not a "no confidence" vote. I could have written it in on the ballot, but it would not have counted.

    Because the average american voter has the mentality of a toddler, and that's even an insult to toddlers.

    Blanco votes or votes that are not invalid, always get added to the biggest party in your district/county.

    Guess which side is vastly outnumbered? That's right speak with your destructive actions and rhetoric and watch how quickly you get what you deserve.

    Go ahead, try to make it compulsory in a nation with the 2nd Amendment.

    It's amusing just how many would be compulsory actions in other nations become voluntary here with that and other aspects of the Constitution in effect.

    I didn't vote either, and it was my right not to. There's nothing you can do about that either so stop crying about things you literally cannot change.

    AMEN!!!!

    Also non-college educated men voted for trump 82% to 23%. The statistics on this election are fascinating.

    That's pretty funny. I'd LOVE to see some hipsters try to attack some good old boys, would be really amusing what would happen to them.

    Then my point stands. By voting "no confidence" I would be voting for no one. But they want it to mean I voted for someone, which I did not. Might as well add all those who did not vote at all to the "biggest party" as well. Voting means nothing.

    I didn't vote...I knew Gary Johnson had a snowball's chance in hell of winning.

    You knew the violent vagrants would start up once they lost, they have no ideas or values- so all they have is violence. Sorry guys, don't be mad- you shouldn't have believed the cronies in the media that told you Hillary was going to crush trump. You also might want to examine why you attached yourself to such a corrupt, corrupt woman. Just a bad call around- you should go out and protest yourself.
