" because of seven faithless electors"

This statement is evidence that people who post articles on Wiki (and possibly Wiki itself) is not true journalism nor simple facts. "Faithless" is an opinion of the writer. A true journalist does not display his/her biases. They present the facts as they are. Obvious bias does not belong in a page or article comprised of what should be simple facts. It should be removed. 2603:9001:8F00:982:8C40:4671:A7EF:205D (talk) 21:46, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's the actual term. See our article on it: Faithless elector. You see how those words "faithless electors" is in blue? That's called a wikilink. Please educate yourself on the matter before going off half-cocked. (That's an actual term too.) – Muboshgu (talk) 21:52, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Faithless elector is the commonly used term for an elector who casts a vote for candidate other than the one they are pledged to. See Faithless electors in the 2016 United States presidential election. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 21:54, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Other positions at the time

Other positions at the time. Trump hammered away at the Clintons on NAFTA and their role while Bill was in office at the time. And Hillary hammered away on Trump on wanting to destroy or break up NATO and being influenced by Vladimir Putin. CaribDigita (talk) 10:11, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Vermont

The percentages for Vermont are different on this page compared to the Vermont 2016 page. For example, Clinton is listed with 56.68% on here, but 55.72% on the other page. That page also shows two more votes for Evan McMullin compared to this one. 65.130.225.100 (talk) 01:16, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Maine

There is a 144 vote discrepancy between the combination of ME-1 and ME-2 compared to the total for the state. 65.130.225.100 (talk) 01:21, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
