Weird how the last two republicans lost the popular vote

[dafttool]

I’m old enough, that losing by 3 million was considered a landslide. 🙄 But that was ages ago....

[littlejack]

In 2016, lots of folks were ho hum when it came to Hiliary. Now more and more people are maybe not thrilled with Biden.... but they have learned to be passionately against Trump.... Please vote blue in November!!!

Electoral college needs to go! Has needed to go!

[Treetopflyer]

Wake TF up America. Time to change your “democratic” system.

[coudgeb]

The electoral vote needs to be tossed.

[vellaking]

The electoral college needs to be abolished.

[greenmile]

Don’t forget that the “Electors” within the Electoral College can be influenced to change their vote and not cast it towards the winning candidate of their district. This must change!

[GarryGabriel]

there's a secondary factor: gerrymandering, everywhere, it would need to be optimized for that to get the electoral college but lose the popular vote by a maximum amount.
then all of this is coupled with seat per capita.

[MosesPlays]

It is actually a joke of a fact that America calls itself a Democracy (Confederate supporters would say "America was never a Democracy, it's a Republic" LOL) while maintaining inequality of voter's weight, depends on which state they live in, in the year of 2020.

[randomrobin]

We need to get rid of the broken electoral college system.

[jakecs]

Stupid question. Of course he can. It's the ridiculous math of the electoral college.

[JuggernautProductions]

The US would consider any other country using this system an authoritative regime and unfair democracy.

[kuribayashi]

If he wins again, for my mental health, I'll start pretending the US doesn't exist.

[noxid]

one in a "very very big number" sounds like something Trump would say lol

[denniswolff]

AMERICANS ARE ANTI FACIST ... DRAFT DODGER DONALD JOHN TRUMP IS A
F A C I S T ....AND DANGER TO OUR DEMOCRACY.

[AidenAbette]

Can maybe we stop using thumbnails of his smug nasty face? I just ate.

[denniswolff]

REMEMBER THIS NOVEMBER
VOTE BLUE
SAVE OUR DEMOCRACY

[romjaheim]

This whole polling right now is pointless because it doesn't reflect the electoral college. it's like why even bring up the polling right now

[karfomachet]

lost by 2 points ???? don't u mean 3 million + votes
