36.7% of americans eligible to vote in 2024 chose not to. Therefore, no one won.

If 64% of ppl voted and no one got at least 50% of those that did vote. No single candidate got more than 32% of the total potential popular vote. Thus no single candidate got even a third of all votes cast.
Where was the manditory runoff election as required by law?
Gas prices higher. Military cost higher. Lies upon lies. Laws being broken by an unpopular felon that cheated.
Welcome to America!

There is no runoff for presidential elections in the US

There is no law requiring someone to get 50% of the popular vote

The “potential popular vote” is not a real thing

That’s why
@PalteseMalconFunch
...then why bother with a Democratic Republic if the theory itself has no relevance?

I’m just answering the OP
@PalteseMalconFunch
So then, I guess my own question requires another separately posted question then, huh?

@jehova Yea, that’s been the case forever. The electoral college is nonsensical.

@PalteseMalconFunch agree. Its an antiquated old man (mostly white) country club. The rest of us are but peasants to those oligarchs and estatesmen.
