I was sure this was wrong, but it's true: according to official state counts, Donald Trump won 49.80% of the popular vote to Kamala Harris's 48.32%. The top 5 was rounded out by Jill Stein (0.56%), Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (0.49%), and Chase Oliver (0.42%) [1].
(yes, I'm aware of the irony of linking to federal agency data in this thread)
archive it, quick! Can't have that data around contradicting the landslide and all :)
Why would it be surprising enough to need verification? There was more than 2 candidates and the US presidential election is always very close.
While technically true the difference between 49.8 and 50.01 is quite small and not very interesting. I think the major point was probably that a lot of US citizens don't vote.
