Clinton won 16.

Clinton won the popular vote by approx. 1.5 million votes.
In the 5 counties that encompass NYC, (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Richmond & Queens) Clinton
received well over 2 million more votes than Trump. (Clinton won 4 of these counties, Trump won
Richmond)

Therefore these 5 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, it would be
ludicrous to even suggest that the vote of those that encompass a mere 319 square miles should
dictate the outcome of a national election.

A few large, densely populated Democrat cities (NYC, Chicago, LA, etc) should not speak for the
whole of our country.
