First of all the President and Vice President is not elected by the states. They are elected by "Electoral Votes" each states have.
Correct.

These electoral votes are given to the states selected delegates appointed by the states according to the federal popular vote of the citizens.
Partially correct... the popular vote of the citizens only determines WHICH electors are appointed, based on WHICH party wins the popular vote. The actual NUMBER of electors is determined by the number of representatives the state already has and that's where my issue lies.

I seriously doubt half the population of ANY state is under 18. The U.S. Census Bureau says 22%. ('not exactly half)

Yes, according to the Public Policy Institute of California, their "best estimate" is 6.3% of the total population in California.

You incorrectly said that about California... I won't bother to verify this because I don't see how isolating Los Angeles makes any difference to your argument. 22% of Californians are under 18, Los Angeles is part of that.

Adults with half children? I'm not sure what that even means, but according to the U.S. Census Bureau New York has 19,849,399 people and 3% of them are under 18. It seems like you're trying to say half of the adults in New York are children.

Wait... THREE states? You only listed two. Do I really need to tell you that Los Angeles is not a state?

Well, some of your inputs are incorrect and as they say in my business, "garbage in, garbage out". Also, you are ignoring states like Washington, Oregon, Colorado, New Mexico, Minnesota, Illinois, Virginia, Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland and Hawaii, all of which Clinton won.
Rather than go through your complex and trashy calculations, why not just look up the popular vote? That is after all an official count of how EVERYONE in the country voted. 65,516,951 people voted for Clinton, 62,844,908 people voted for Trump. Simple.

If voters had 377 electors votes to cast and the voters voted 1 vote more fof Hillary than Trump she would be awarded All of the votes.
No offense but this doesn't make any sense. It *seems* like you are talking about the process of choosing electors but that process varies from state to state. Electors are appointed by the parties, usually during their national conventions. So if a state has 9 representatives (so 9 electoral votes) each party appoints 9 potential electors of their own. Which of these electors get to cast a vote is determined by the general election. In *some* states, the party that wins by one popular vote wins ALL the electoral votes... So in my example, say the Republicans win by one popular vote, all 9 Republican electors get to vote and ALL of the Democrat electors sit out. Other states like Nebraska and Maine, split their electoral votes to be more democratic.
In any case, this process of one vote takes all is not how the president is ultimately elected.

California, Illinois had and New York have a total of only 50,668,313 people or 35,664,071 legal voters to vote.
The rest of the United Staters had over 250,000,000 people left that's why he won.
Incorrect. Only 270 electoral votes are required to win the election. This is based on the total number of electoral votes, which is based on the total number of seats in Congress. The reason why Trump won is because he reached that number which actually happened BEFORE the votes in the Pacific time zone were even counted!
What makes this possible is once again the uneven distribution of representation. California has 55 electoral votes which isn't enough to change the 270 electoral votes required to win. But if Californians were represented equally, let's say the same as voters in Wyoming (I use these two states as my example because I already did the math) California would have 275 electoral votes... add that to the total and the number of electoral votes required to win would be 408, not 270.
So the 275 votes in California would have to be considered and, yes Clinton would have won.
So, you can count your blessings that Clinton didn't win, but don't try to fool me into thinking it's all straight math or that it's even justified. Trump won legally, that's about all you can say about it.
