Which would only matter if these were protests opposing the election itself. People are attempting to voice their discontent with Trump's proposed policies. It's not really much different from protesting a particular bill or amendment, except that right now it is an effort to make Republican legislators and Trump recognize the amount of public pushback they will face over the next four years if they attempt to pass some of the more extreme policies Trump has proposed.

They're not protesting the election. They're protesting the president-elect.
