“Donald Trump won the election by getting, and because he got, 312 electoral votes, which is more than the 270 required to win a presidential election. Kamala Harris lost the election by getting, and because she got, 226 electoral votes, which is less than the 270 required to win a presidential election. Yes, it really is that simple. Yes, it really is that concise. And aside from one factor — the ability of the two candidates to enthuse their voters and get them to the polls — the reasons for the vote differentials are a dog’s breakfast of confusing details, each of which could have gone in other directions and changed the outcome.” (11/12/24)
