We won a lot of places. We won Florida. We won Ohio. Big, big. We won them big. Remember, we were going to lose Florida, they said. We were five down in Florida. We won by a lot. We were way down in Ohio, and we won by a lot. I think they say that if you win Florida and if you win Ohio in history, you’ve never lost an election. This has got to be a first time. But the truth is they were right, we’ve never lost that election. We’re winning this election. And I will say, we’re fighting very hard for this state. When you look at all of the corruption and all of the problems having to do with this election, all I can do is campaign and then I wait for the numbers. But when the numbers come out of ceilings and come out of leather bags, you start to say, “What’s going on?” …
If we have courage and wisdom, I think, you know what the answer’s going to be because you can’t let people get away with what they got away with. Think of it, with over seventy-four million votes, over, think of that, more than … I got more votes than any sitting president in history. Eleven million more votes than we got in 2016. And we thought that if we could get sixty-eight million, sixty-seven million, that would be the end. All of our great, brilliant geniuses said you’d win if you get sixty-seven or sixty-eight. It’s over. We got seventy-four million–plus and they’re trying to convince us that we lost. We didn’t lose. They found a lot of ballots, to be nice about it. And they got rid of some, too. The seventy-four, let me tell you, the seventy-four could have been even higher …
In fact, President Trump is the only one of five incumbents since 1912 to receive more than ninety percent of the primary vote. And again, anybody received over seventy-five percent, they won. We got ninety-four percent. President Trump set a record for the most primary votes ever received by an incumbent, ever. And nobody that’s received all of the primary votes, nobody’s received at a much lesser level than what we—they always won. But we didn’t, according to what they say. It’s rigged. It’s a fixed deal. Nationally, initial numbers show that twenty-six percent of President Trump’s voting share came from nonwhite voters. The highest percentage for a GOP presidential candidate since 1960. That’s a long time ago. President Trump won … Think of this one. President Trump won eighteen of nineteen bellwether counties. You know what a bellwether county is? It’s a big deal. So, I won eighteen of nineteen, a record, never happened. That between 1980 and 2016 [these bellwether counties] voted for the eventual president in every single election, and before that, it was almost every election. And we won a record eighteen of nineteen. Never lost. Nobody’s ever lost with anything like that …
President Trump won. President Trump won as we said both in Florida and then Ohio. And by the way, won by a lot. Remember the fake polls where they said he’s down by four in Florida, and I won by a lot. He’s down by two in Ohio, and we won. I think we got eight or nine or something, up. But nobody’s ever done that. Those two very powerful, big, important states. And the beauty is that we also won Georgia, and that was good. We won South Carolina, and we won Iowa. Remember, we’re not going to win in Iowa, they said. We’re not going to win. I think the farmers like Trump a lot, right? Well, we won in Iowa by a lot. We won in Iowa by close to record numbers. I think I have the record. And we won all over the place.
And many of these swing states, it’s a very interesting statistic. President Obama beat Biden all over the country, except in some of the swing states, where Biden beat him badly. How does that work? And they say it’s statistically impossible. He beat Crooked Hillary. Think of this. He beat Crooked Hillary in the swing states, but she beat him everywhere else. Let me tell you, this election was rigged …
