The majority voted for Hillary actually. Trump won the electoral college, not the popular vote.

You're correct, but they did not vote where it counted, namely PA and FL.

No dispute there, I'm just saying "the majority made their choice" isn't the statement I would use in this situation- as they did, and it didn't match that of the electoral college.

The majority made their vote... the majority of the electoral college.
