An analysis published today by Axios finds that:
A shift of fewer than 80,000 votes in three states (Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin) — or 0.06% of 137 million cast — would not just have made Hillary Clinton president.
6 one-hundredths of one percent of all votes cast decided the presidency in 2016, along with the future of the Supreme Court.
Whoever you are, whatever your views, make sure you cast your vote — every time it is your right to do so.
