The Rising Trump Lawyer Battling to Reshape the Electorate


In the summer of 2013, a young lawyer named William Consovoy appeared on a Brookings Institution panel to discuss his leading role in a recently decided voting-rights case. Just days earlier, the Supreme Court had ruled that certain states, particularly in the South, would no longer need Justice Department approval before redrawing districts, 


Long before Donald Trump defeated Hillary Clinton for this administration last year, this country was facing steady growing cultural and political tensions rooted in diverging responses to the continual system, demographic and cultural changes reshaping American life. But the bruising 2016 competition between,

Trump and Clinton extended these parts to the new level. In the starkly contrasting structure of supporting each person inspired, this position served something like a bolt of light on the starless night: It cleared, with sharp starkness, a political landscape deeply fractured along lines of race, generation, Course and geography.

The period was the eye opener for me. In coastal bubbles the Trump administration was virtually impossible. Silicon Valley was optimizing at these margins; the primary action ended, it was picking current fights (sometimes with Thiel affiliates who were pro-Hillary !) “From my perspective,” Consovoy said, “this is what I would call a modest decision by the court.”In fact, it was a watershed — a declaration that some of the central protections enshrined in the Voting Rights Act of 1965,

The election results showed something entirely different: 50 percent of voting Americans, and the age of the electoral college sent the large screw You to the organization and got Trump.

While not all of these same people, this is the one populist groundswell that supported Bernie: A huge portion of the people does not think the new organization is running for them. And they are mostly good.

The presidential election is mostly depicted as The struggle to get states and their accompanying electoral votes. Hillary Clinton won Vermont, then she had its three elected ballots. Donald Trump won AK, then he had its three elected votes. Whoever takes to 270 or more electoral votes first — the number of the 538 amount — wins the vote. This was the relative system. Next, we hold down. 

The implies that Donald Trump receives 7 electoral votes, Hillary Clinton receives 7 electoral votes, and that third-parties at This total have 0 electoral votes. The tallies to the sum of 14 electoral votes, giving 2 votes unaccounted for. Since Donald Trump had the most common votes, he obtains those remaining 2 electoral votes. This last analysis then makes Donald Trump 9 electoral votes and Hillary Clinton 7 electoral votes.
