The county-level election results for 2016 clearly demonstrate the need for the Electoral College process to protect our nation from being ruled by a few urban centers. Of the approximately 3,100 counties in the U.S., Clinton won only 568 (18 of them! Trump was truly a populist candidate, winning the majority popular vote in 82% of our nation’s counties. In fact, in ten states where Clinton won the statewide popular vote, a majority (in some cases an overwhelming majority) of the state’s counties chose Trump: Colorado, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Virginia. Clinton only won eleven states with both a state-wide majority and a majority of counties (California, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Colombia, Hawaii, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington). That is hardly a referendum for the winner of the national popular vote to automatically govern all counties of the United States. per gOOgle researchAbracadabra

Millard Fillmore was the 13th U.S. President, and the one who served office between 1850 and 1853. He was also the last U.S. President not to be affiliated with either the Democrats or the Republicans. In 1856, former President Fillmore, then affiliated with the American Party, was nominated as a Presidential candidate for the Presidential elections in 1856. The other two candidates, James Buchanan and John C. Frémont, represented the Democrats and Republicans, respectively. While slavery was an omnipotent issue discussed in the election campaigns of 1856, the American Party decided to largely ignore this issue and instead focus on anti-immigration and anti-Catholic policies. Fillmore also focused on the point that the American Party was the only ‘national party’ in the true sense, as the Republicans were fanatically in favor of the North's interests and the Democrats leaned towards those of the South. However, in the end, Buchanan defeated both Fillmore and Frémont to become the 15th President of the United States. Only 8 electoral votes were won by Fillmore, which was still a significant number when considering the historical stance of third parties in the Presidential elections of the country. Abracadabra
