Jeff, No majority at all. He led the polls but had over 50% in very few areas. Mosly it was the split vote that got him in. If they had a runoff he would have still won, but not a big a number.
Our education system is strictly second rate. I came here from England in 1948, aged 9 and except for geography/social studies I was 2 years ahead of all my age group. I was taught to be university ready at around 16 instead of 18 as we are here. They are only now cutting out grade 13.
It is sad to see how much we pay for a bad product.
