As of right now the counts are showing a plurality of voters selected Clinton. What chose Trump is our antiquated election system that weighs rural voters more per capita.

I'm no Clinton supporter--I despise the woman--but if I didn't live in NYC I'd have voted for her. I didn't bother because the system is set up so any extra votes in NY don't matter.

If I were a Trump supporter I'd stay home for similar reasons.
