Pueblo Voted Trump President In November 2016
Pueblo voted for Donald Trump in November 2016. Trump beat Hilary in Pueblo by 390 votes, 36,265 vs 35,875, by 0.5%, by a half percentage point. Trump beat Hillary by half a percentage point. The diverse Democratic working class "big city" town of Pueblo voted for Trump to be President of these poor dear United States.
Donald J. Trump & Michael R. Pence won the plurality vote with 36,265 votes (46.11%) when Hillary Clinton & Tim Kaine got 35,875 votes - 390 votes less - in Pueblo (45.61%).
Neither one of them won the majority.
Libertarians Gary Johnson & Bill Weld got 4,072 votes (5.18%) & the Green Party Jill Stein & Ajamu Baraka garnered 942 votes (1.2%), to round out the Top 4.
Evan McMullin/Nathan Johnson got 441 votes (0.56%), & Darrell L. Castle & Scott N. Bradley got 427 votes (0.54%), to round out the Top 6.
Now, there's a bunch of stupid dumbass non-analytical pricks who want to blame Jill Stein for Trump's Presidency, as if Hillary herself isn't to blame. Their argument is, since Jill Stein is a "lefty", then her voters would have voted for Hillary instead of her, had Jill not ran. Their argument assumes that Jill Stein's voters are the same as Hillary Clinton voters. If that assumption holds true, then Jill was a "spoiler" in Pueblo, Colorado. Jill Stein received 942 votes (1.2%), and Hillary lost by 390 votes (0.5%)... & since 942 is greater than 390, at least 2 times over, then had Jill's voters voted for Hillary instead - in Pueblo - then Hillary would have won.
But Jill Stein wasn't the biggest "spoiler". Gary Johnson is. So if Democrats in Pueblo try to blame Jill Stein for Donald Trump, they ignore their own election, where Gary Johnson spoiled the fuck out of Pueblo's election. How many of those 4,072 votes do you think would have voted for Hillary? Let's assume a generous 75/25 split, which means 1,000 of Gary Johnson's voters would have voted for Hillary... again, Gary Johnson is a spoiler for Hillary, way bigger than Jill Stein was.
Also, if you think Jill Stein & Gary Johnson voters were to blame for Trump, then perhaps you should listen to us next time, & try to win our votes, instead of taking us from granted. Thx.
More spoilers are Evan McMullin & Darrell Castle. Evan's 441 votes is greater than the 390 vote margin, & Darrell's 427 votes is too.
So if you're going to blame Jill Stein for Trump's victory, make sure you mention Gary Johnson, & Evan McMullin & Darrell Castle too. They were all spoilers too. Of course Darrell Castle voters would have voted for Hillary! Duh!
Either every candidate is stealing every other candidates' votes away, or nobody is.
But, if you're one of those "spoiler" people, then don't forget to blame Gary, Evan, & Darrell, plus don't forget all of the other Independents too. While they didn't get more than 390 votes individually, collectively, they got...
Well, let's count them up:
Chris Keniston got 134 votes.
Rocky La Fuente got 93 votes.
Joseph Allen Maldonado got 62 votes for President from Pueblo voters.
Mike Smith got 54 votes.
Gloria Estela La Riva got 51 votes (0.06%).
Tom Hoefling got 35 votes.
Rayn Alan Scott got 32 votes.
Rod Silva got 30 votes.
Alyson Kennedy got 28 votes from Pueblo's voters.
Michael A. Maturen got 25 votes.
Kyle Kenley Kopitke got 24 votes.
Bradford Lyttle got 11 votes.
James Hedges got 10 votes.
Emidio Soltysik got 8 votes.
Laurence Kotlikoff got 6 votes.
& there were 6 unknown write-in votes.
That's a total of 609 votes. Yup, 609 is more than 390 votes, so when you're blaming Jill Stein for Trump's victory/Hillary's defeat, don't forget to blame Gary Johnson, Evan McMullin, Darrell Castle - especially Darrell Castle -, Chris Keniston, Rocky La Fuente, Joseph Allen Maldonado, Mike Smith, Gloria Estela La Riva, Tom Hoefling, Rayn Alan Scott, Rod Silva, Alyson Kennedy, Michael A. Maturen, Kyle Kenley Kopitke, Bradford Lyttle, James Hedges, Emidio Soltysik, Laurence Kotlikoff, & 6 unknown write-in voters too.
So don't forget to blame all 3rd parties & Independent candidates, all 20 of them, Pueblo Democrats, especially Tom Hoefling, Kyle Kenley Kopitke, & Emidio Solysik - most especially Emidio Solysik, & don't forget to blame the 6 write-in voters! Do they think they can just vote for any ol' person they want to? Maybe they voted for themselves, or somebody else they admired (which should be reported... why don't they report the write-in votes? That's fkn bullshit too), but regardless, if they had written in their own names, then clearly, they would have voted for Hillary... because of... why? Because of all of her unlikable qualities? Her right-wing conservative agenda, or her shrill psychotic voice & demeanor?
Or you - Pueblo Democrats - could reflect & be like ... wtf? Learn from your mistakes. Think about the 2016 Election, what it was, what it meant to you, and why you failed. Realize that the reason why Trump won is the same as why Hillary lost. Success has a million fathers, & defeat is an orphan. She was a shitty candidate, who wasn't a progressive, nor is she able to speak like an authentic person, and she lost to a person who only had a 40% approval rating. Trump won this as much as Hillary lost it. Hillary only has herself to blame for this lost.
Voters rejected the Anointed One because they rejected her agenda, her ideas, her style, her way... her. The voters rejected Hillary. Not only did Hillary lose, but she hurt all of the down ballot candidates. Jason Munoz would have won if Bernie was at the helm of the DNC.
There were 942 Jill Stein voters in Pueblo, which tells me that there's at least 942 righteous awakened intelligent people in Pueblo. And for those 942 voters in Pueblo, Hillary never had their vote to begin with.
The reason why the corporatist Democrats disparages the Green Party, because they see them as the enemy. In fact, the corporatist Democrats would rather work with the opposition party than with the Green Party. The Green Party are the liberals who speak up, who are pure, innocent, & honest, and that's what the corporatist Democrats hate the most. Jill Stein will be remembered as an MLK of our times. Our precious green revolutionary. The Green Party serves as a convenient scapegoat for the Democratic Party's own losses, for the DNC's own failures, so they don't have to take the blame, but those who don't learn from history, are doomed to repeat it.
You still have 3 fkn years DNC to find a great progressive to run for President, & no Kamala Harris isn't it. Find a great progressive. A Tulsi Gabbard kind of progressive.
Isn't it weird that corporatist Democrats work with Republicans more readily than with Greens? It's almost like corporatist Democrats relate to Republicans more than liberal Greens, isn't it? Weird.
Either every candidate is stealing every other candidates votes away, or nobody is. I say nobody is. Nobody is literally stealing anybody's votes away, because if they were, then that's voter fraud, and that's illegal, which means that people should be going to jail over that. But it's called an election, and we're Americans. More options & choices are good things. When 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or more candidates run, & enter into an election - the more, the better-, they are opposed to each other, they are competing against each other, that's the fkn point of a goddamned election.
Hell, if we want to be ridiculous, then Shitlery Shitton stole Jill Stein's votes away from her. Shitlery cost Jill the election.
But let's be serious. If somebody does literally steal votes, then prosecute them, and throw them in jail.
If not, then just STFU.
