Does Alaska Vote Independent? Because they are all Grey

You know the majority live in the blue bits, right?

Ever heard of the electoral college?

You know they actually don't, right?

Just because /some/ of those blue bits have the highest /concentrations/ of people in the US, that in no way equates to them having the majority of people.

Sure, most of the red parts don't have a lot of people /per acre/, relatively speaking, but there is a HELL of a lot more acreage to cover, and much of it is acreage that's actually important to the well-being of the country. (IE if/when society collapses, the bread basket will be far more useful than silicon valley.)

But just so you don't think I'm blowing smoke out of my ass, I did a little rough calculation.

Total population of the US: approximately 329 million.
Total population of all red states, plus half of Maine, combined: approximately 188 million.

Therefore, total population of blue states: 329 - 188 = 141 million (approximately)

Now, of course you can say "not all people in the red areas actually voted red!", but the converse is also true; not everyone in California or New York (among the few other tiny blue areas) voted blue. In fact I'm given to understand there's a fairly large "red" contingent in California.

It's the sheer, utterly disgusting arrogance of the you people that lets you think that living in elite, wealthy, decadent cities makes your opinions more important than the hard-working people on their "dusty land" in your so-called "flyover states", and that just because they're spread out in many states instead of all clustered in one or two cities, that means you are "obviously" the majority.

It's your kind of thinking that will lead to the kind of society depicted in the 'Hunger Games' movies. But maybe that's what you want?

And I'm sure you're wondering from where I got my population figures.

For population of individual states: http://worldpopulationreview.com/states/
For political position of each state as of 2016 election: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_states_and_blue_states#Table_of_presidential_elections_by_states_since_1972

And a point I forgot to nail home: it doesn't even matter if there are some people in those red states who would vote blue, the whole point is that the blue areas on that map /don't even remotely/ have the majority population.

And you somehow think none of those red states have urban areas, that only the blue states are that technologically advanced, don't you?

Again: don't know what to tell you, there's a number that we added up and there were more of them in the blue bits than in the red bits. You must have heard about it. It's actually exactly the count that Trump is referring to with that map.

If you think every single Democrat wants to impeach, you're naive as f**k.

So now you move the goalposts and are talking about the majority of voters in terms of popular vote?

Funny, here I thought we were talking about the majority of the population in general, who happen to live in the red "bits".

Read the OP again.

All it says is "the majority", not "the majority of people who got out to vote in 2016".

Sure, if you ignore the picture of the guy holding that map there.

I don't see any words /at all/ on the map. What I do see is a map that has far more red on it than blue, and as I've already proven, there are more people living in the red areas than there are in the blue areas.

Most of the red bits really is bits. Problem is, last anyone checked, dust doesn't vote.

Empty space tends to be empty space for some curious reason.
Stick that in your Google Calculate.

True, there's a lot more empty land in those red bits, but that's because, as I said, there's a hell of a lot more land /period/ in those red bits.

Doesn't negate the fact that there's also a lot more people in those red bits. They just have more room to spread out.

This gets boring?

Perhaps you should look up "rural" to clear your confusion so you can stop wasting our time?

"ru·ral
/ˈro͝orəl/

adjective: rural

in, relating to, or characteristic of the countryside rather than the town."

No, fella, there's not.
You were informed this by 3 separate individuals by yesterday including myself?

Rural is, by defintion, rural, your fake math aside.

I provided the links where I got the numbers for my "fake" math.

Rural is by definition rural, I'll grant you that, but rural in no way equates to unoccupied, your fake /facts/ aside.

Perhaps the crank on your device isn't working so you can scroll up, so here's another map like what Mikki posted.

And that somehow proves that people don't live in rural areas? Guess we can stop worrying about "rednecks" then, they clearly don't exist.

Facts....they hate facts. "Reeeeee"

Yep. A lot of that red is wasteland.

You have something against red dust?

Wasteland? Why, I haven't heard anyone say something so outrageous about any particular part of the world since, since... Trump called sh#thole countries, sh#ithole countries!

So, I guess as Americans we have two choices; either living in the wasteland or living in a delusional blue bubble. Damn, what's option C?

Never been there. Been to Billings, Montana though. ;)

Gotta love the typical round self-congratulations over wrong information.

We want FEDERAL PRISON with the rest of his "fixers"

You can't impeach someone who hasn't committed any crime.
