I can't find a website that will debunk this stupid claim that is filling up Google

[Maraya1969]

My fundamentalist Christian brother sent me a mass email. Here are just 2 of the claims:

There are 3,141 counties in the United States.
Trump won 3,084 of them.
Clinton won 57.

I know this is bullshit but guess what happens when I put it in Google?

https://www.google.com/search?q=fact+check+Trump+won+3%2C084+of+them.+Clinton+won+57.&oq=fact+check+Trump+won+3%2C084+of+them.+Clinton+won+57.&aqs=chrome..69i57.9557j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

I checked snopes.com - Nothing
I put in "fact check" and "Hoax" before pasting various combinations of words about it - Nothing

I saw somewhere that she won 500 counties but I cannot find it again!


So I actually went to 4 states and counted the counties. CA, NJ, NY and IL. My total was: +65 Hillary

WHY is there no sites up countering this bullshit? The Democratic party needs to get their ass in gear and have a group dedicated to taking down these sites or at least getting up sites that debunk them and getting them up to the top, or even the first frigging page of Google!

1. The debunk is that it doesn't matter how many counties they won. (nt)

5. It is just that it is another bunch of bullshit from him and I wanted to prove his sources

were fake. If there are so many websites still spewing these things then something is still very wrong and it will affect upcoming elections

2. You are worried about that when Hillary is over 2.5 million votes ahead of loser?

3. Are we going to spend our lives seeking to debunk

every meme that dozens of Putinpuppets can think up? Tell your brother: "Whatever" and move on to something productive.

4. Tell your brother counties don't vote, people do.

And 2.5 million more people voted for Hillary Clinton.

6. "2,600 counties to Clintons 500."

10. One of the things I've had to argue along that line in the Midwest

People here decried the Obama victories, arguing similarly about the map. I had to point out the following "See those three little blue squares at the bottom of Florida on the right? Those are Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. Those three counties have as many people as North Dakota, South Dakota, and Nebraska combined.
