Popular

There is a process underway to remove Trump from the ballot in Maine and Colorado. This process may or may not interfere with election depending on the state. Since all states but Maine and Nebraska have winner take all it would not matter if Trump were not on the ballot in states like California and New York. Winner takes all means just that. In California, which is solidly democratic, the winner of the popular vote gets all the electoral votes so it wouldn't matter if Trump were not on the ballot. In the 2016 election Hillary won the popular vote by 2.9 million but she won the California popular vote by 4.3 million so California alone accounted for her popular win.
