One possibility.

If they can hack the DNC, I don't think disrupting the election is too much of a reach.

e-voting has only one reason to exist: it is meant to be hackable.

The Perfect Storm helped to give tRump this particular presidency, and part of that perfect storm was hacking into our elections from the Russians.

As for Joe Arpaio, the last I heard was that tRump was looking at him as a possible director of Homeland Security.

He wasn't polling at 0% with African-American voters. There were polls out before the election that said he was outpacing Romney with African Americans.

was killing it with all minorities.

Overall, she got 93% of the AA vote (99% of AA women, 83% of AA men).

I'll admit I was surprised by the result but I could certainly see the pro Trump energy in my part of PA. I just assumed Philly would bail js out.

But Hillary lacked Obama's charisma and lost a little ground in Philly and more ground around Pittsburgh. Trump was embraced everywhere in between.

Appealing to urban voters alone won't cut it.

this is what happened.

We also tend to not notice or remember things we don't like. We remember things that fit our internal narratives.

Most people use critical thinking to attack their enemies. The problem is, as Feynman pointed out, you're the person most likely to deceive you and critical thinking is most needed to question one's self. Questioning and doubting enemies is second nature and given tools to do that we'll all do it. But being trained to question ourselves, that takes skill.

Every 9th grader should be exposed to a long list of cognitive biases and Gricean maxims. Instead, most grad students are barely aware of them, more so in some fields than in others.

Prominent rappers saying that a vote for trump was a protest vote against the Democratic Party taking the black vote for granted. Also, I had some AA facebook friends who fell for the Clinton is the mist corrupt candidate in history smear.

... proportionality is the issue here

You tend to miss those that vote for republicans cycle after cycle. Target the right precincts and that number goes up.
