Not that it particularly matters, but there's another anomaly in the US system that is worth mentioning. Donald Trump isn't president yet, but that's not because he hasn't been sworn in. The electoral college hasn't voted yet, and hasn't yet decided who it's going to pick to become President. That will happen in December. There is no obligation, for most of the states, for the electoral college members to vote the way the electorate did. In fact, at least one college member from Washington has already sworn that he will not vote for Clinton, even though she was the winner in that state. (Thankfully, this won't matter).
All of which means that the result on Tuesday was only... advisory. Just saying.
(Of course, this is merely a technicality. No-one really expects the electoral college to ignore the will of the people...)
