A rambling story about the U.S. presidential election. (I just wrote it without thinking.)

-I’m sure many of you have seen a map of the United States in red and blue, and I’m sure some of you are wondering, “How can a Democrat win when it’s almost all covered in red?” I recommend the map below. It’s a map that’s circled according to the size of the county’s population, and it’s blue for Democrats and red for Republicans, which is more intuitive.

-What is a county? If our country is divided into cities, provinces, towns, and so on, then the United States is divided into: federal –> states –> counties — and cities. And on the map I showed you today, we were given a circle per county.

-If you look at the map of Pennsylvania, you’ll see a big blue circle, and on the right is the famous Philadelphia. The U.S. Constitution was created here, there’s a Tom Hanks-starring movie, and the Worton School that Elon Musk and Trump attend is also called the U-Pen (but to anyone who knows it, it’s just a pen).

On the left is Allegheny County, which is a little bit of a declining city called Pittsburgh. Here are the baseball teams that once played by Korean-American football star Heinz Ward, and Kang Jung-ho, who is famous for driving under the influence. These two areas are traditionally Democratic strongholds. And the rest are Republican strongholds.

And Pennsylvania has been a state since the 1992 presidential election where all but one Democratic presidential candidate has won. The exception was Trump’s first year, beating Hillary by 2.97 million to 2.93 million.

But in the second presidential election of 2020, we lost to Biden 3.46 million vs. 3.38 million. I’m really curious about how it’s going to turn out this time.

-Michigan was also won only once by a Republican presidential candidate after returning to the Democratic Party in 1992. Again, Trump barely won by 2.28 million to 2.27 million. In 2020, Biden, the Democratic nominee, took it by a margin that widened by 2.80 million to 2.65 million.

-Pennsylvania is “Amish,” with the largest concentration of people like the rest of the world. They don’t use public electricity, they don’t drive cars, they’re in carriages, they really insist on living in the 1700. I’ve seen a video showing that less than 200,000 Amish are going to vote this time, but I don’t know if they really will. Usually, Amish doesn’t vote. Why go into politics when you’re out of this world?

However, if it is real, it will almost all be Trump, and it is a force that can overturn the 2020 results. However, it is not confirmed whether or not they will vote real.

-Just over 4 percent of people in Pennsylvania are Puerto Rican, and I’m furious that a comedian named Tony Hinchcliffe on a trip to the pump called Puettorico a “trash pile.” Furthermore, many Latino’s think this is racist.

What’s interesting about this is that in 2017, when Hurricane Maria swept through Puerto Rico, more than 2,000 people died. The belated federal response made the Puerto Ricans very angry, and Trump came here and said, “The Island is dirty” and left without doing much about it. At this point, 200,000 Puettricians left the ruined island and came to the mainland of the United States. What’s the largest and second largest city in New York? Yes, it’s Philadelphia, home to Pennsylvania. That’s not a huge number, but it’s such a big deal, but it’s going to be a big fight that nobody knows what it’s going to do when they come together.

-It was one of the colonies that the United States defeated declining Spain in 1898 during the Spanish-American War, and they got Guam, the Philippines, the Puerto Rico, Cuba, the Philippines, the Republic of Cuba, the Philippines and Cuba, and Guam and the Puerto Rico still remain American colonies.

Interestingly, people in Puerto Rico are all granted U.S. citizenship, and they have all rights. But they don’t have electors in Puerto Rico (the same goes for Guam), because it’s not a state. So Americans with addresses in Puerto Rico don’t have the right to vote in a presidential election. But because you’re a citizen of the U.S., you can vote in Pennsylvania or another state.

-When I think of Puerto Rico, I also think of Kang Jung-ho from the Pittsburgh Pirates. He applied for a visa in the U.S. in 2017 but was denied because he had a criminal record (Drinking is a crime!). Then in 2018, the Pittsburgh Pirates appointed the best immigration attorney and succeeded in obtaining the visa. As far as I can remember, the lawyer he used went to the U.S. mainland after obtaining the visa from Puettorico, which is a flimsier, not the mainland. Anyway, he’s a visa from the same country. I’m not an immigration lawyer, but a load of nonsense on Twitter, and I state that this is not legal advice.

Anyway, there is no right to vote, but it is interesting that Kang Jung-ho went to Pennsylvania through Puerto Rico.

-There’s about one very short piece I’m going to write about the U.S. presidential election, but that’s it for now.
