The results of the Presidential contest name Hillary Clinton the winner with 41.7 million votes or 42% of the total. Trump, on the other hand, received 40.1 million votes or 40%.
Do these "results" definitively show the election is rigged?
So only 100 million will vote this year, while 127 million voted in 2012?
No way.
Do folks understand how elections are "rigged" in this country?
Voters are disenfranchised ahead of time, or in real time.
By Republicans.
Invariably.

I noticed the vote totals too. And there's no way Jill Stein is going to get 5% of the vote. And Hillary will probably end up with something like 46-49% of the vote.
I'm calling it Clinton 50% / Trump 46% / Johnson 3% / Stein 1%.
And if that turns out to be spot on it means I rigged the election...
I certainly hope and believe Dr. Stein will get at least 5% of the vote, after all I voted for her! She was by lightyears the better candidate - that is why she was not allowed to even be mentioned by the presstitutes or speak in the 'debates' [which is now run by a corporation entirely owned by a board that is 50% Republican bosses and 50% Democratic bosses]. She was allowed to be in the debates as they were re-broadcast on Democracy Now! - and they have an audience of several million. I realize many were/are afraid to vote for Stein or write in Sanders for fear of Trump, but if we don't drive a wooden stake into this vampire of an electoral/political system, we'll have it next year, in four years and until it destroys itself and perhaps the World...and it is rapidly sucking all of our 'blood'....[50% of Americans are poor or about to fall into poverty - we are endlessly at War - over 85% feel the Government is at odds with their wishes, etc.] The prime thing one should realize is that those (s)elected every four years do not run the Executive branch nor head the 'government' - the men behind the curtain do that. Only an independent [non-puppet] President can even or will TRY to represent the People and not the Oligarchy of men behind the curtains. The last to try that in a modest way was JFK...and THAT was why he was assassinated. Our electoral system IS RIGGED from start to finish!!...as is our POLITY, economy, education system, justice system, history and more. Basta! An end to this Empire and all empires - especially corporate fascist police state ones, like ours. Imperial Rome was no worse than the USA today and the USA will share the same fate very soon if it/we can't find a way to reform it - which would entail an ®evolution to a real democracy, where the People decide things [on the basis of THEIR interests and needs] and not the men behind the curtains of power and money, war and espionage, hubris and greed!!!! I am disgusted by what I see in my country since WWII to today, especially since the inflection points of Dallas and 911 and several others in between; I am endlessly saddened that most Americans, while sensing that something is deeply wrong, can't put a finger or a neuron on what it really is. The problem IS the SYSTEM and the corrupt sycophantic un-democratic neo-fascist, authoritarian oligarchs pulling all the strings and writing all the propaganda and lies.
