If Trump had gotten less than a majority of the electoral votes, because Jill Stein or Gary Johnson had done unexpectedly well, the general election would've been thrown to a "brokered convention" in the House of Representatives

It wouldn't really be "less democratic" than what actually happened, which was Trump winning with a minority of the popular vote

The ideal solution to this problem would be a single national primary with ranked choice voting, but pretty much anything is better than a FPTP plurality-wins system, where you can claim the "will of the people" with like 27% of the vote
