re: #395 Belafon

Were they? From what I remember of the original Brexit, it barely passed, and a number of people protest voted for something they didn’t think would pass.
.

Yes, they were. Brexit passed with 51.89% to 48.11%.

Not so different from Obama’s 51.1% to Romney’s 47.2%

Would you claim that Obama won on a “protest vote for something that they didn’t think would pass”?

(PS. I was, although disenfranchised, strongly against Brexit. I am in the process of changing my nationality because of it. But denying democratic legitimacy is a dumb move.)
