Roughly 50.1% but that’s still assuming none of these people would’ve switched to trump
That’s not assuming none switched to Trump, merely that most switched to Harris. I think having such a close runoff race would also be likely to change how people voted more broadly. Turnout would be through the roof if everyone felt like their one vote would be the one that swung the election. It’s really hard to say what the results would have been.
And we’ll never know because this shithole country doesn’t do runoff elections.
and this is how US elections work
Yes, and it’s bad. I’m saying the way US elections work is undemocratic. They are designed from the ground-up to favor the ruling class and suppress the will of the People. They are meant to be undemocratic. This was all intentional.

I get all of that. I’m saying a president (in this case Kamala) isn’t going to fix this. No flavor of voting will fix our problems imo.
And I’m saying that, because voting in the US doesn’t actually determine policy, we shouldn’t call it democracy.
Then I think we agree for the most part.
