Well, he's probably right.

There's around 11 million illegal immigrants in the US by most estimates. I saw a poll recently that reckons 13% of illegal immigrants voted (aware this is flimsy as fuck, but let's assume it's a reasonable guess).

Okay, imagine 13% of 11 million people (1430000) did actually vote. Are they going to vote for the guy who said he's going to deport them? Highly doubtful, let's say 90% (a conservative estimate if you ask me, probably more like 100%) voted for Hillary. That's 1287000 people.

Election results as of what I'm looking at right now:

Trump: 62,379,366
Hillary: 64,469,963

Let's take the illegal's votes away from Hillary

64,469,963 - 1287000 = 63182963

Shit. That's still more than Trump.

I demand a recount!
