    There are 23 states will less than 4 million people. When all the counting is done, Biden will probably lead the popular vote by around 7 million -- more than the population of 35 of the 50 states.https://twitter.com/TonyKaron/status/1324555420292231175 …

    Just a reminder that in a proper democracy, Biden's 4 million vote lead would mean that it's not even close... pic.twitter.com/x7hYch8cwJ

        President @realDonaldTrump claimed Thursday that there would be a lot of litigation and judges from the Supreme Court would rule. He also claimed that he couldn't have an election stolen by like this. #USElection #USElection2020 #Elections2020 pic.twitter.com/2VEig54kqD

        But the true "popular vote" total is impossible to ascertain. Due to the electoral college, many people in non-swing states don't vote. Citing the current "popular vote" total as conclusive is unwise.

        Which is why we should ditch the EC. It's not representative.

        There are quite a number or Republicans in California whose votes for President are always *meaningless*.

        Well, by that metric it shouldn’t really have been close for Clinton either...in a true democracy.

        That would be a bigger margin than Obama beat Romney by.

        You’re triggering the 3 guys who failed civics but learned the US isn’t a pure democracy.

        I think others have said this, but instead of dropping billions on weak politicians, figure out how to implant businesses, jobs, and 'D' people into IA, ND, SD, NE, WY, MT, and AK. 1MM+ people entry into these 7-states yields 14 Senators, 26 EC, & governors/statehouses.
