      The "popular vote" dead-enders are deluding themselves. HRC is not "the winner" of the election. She's a loser. It's over. @NicholsUprisingpic.twitter.com/2IJh6FDoC4

      The US does not hold a popular vote contest. It holds 51 individual contests per a compact between the states + DC. It's a federal republic.

          Trump won per the requirements set forth by the Constitution, which have been in effect since 1788. Quit being sore losers.

          not to mention, we really don't want to adapt to using just the popular vote, bc then most states would lose their voice completely

          Regardless, none of these folks would be lamenting the structural rigging of democracy if Trump won the pop vote but lost the EC.

          As even Trump pointed out – in popular vote system, campaigning would be way different

          your common sense is so refreshing. Pragmatism is rare these days, where people need to skew something to make sense in their head

          Even if popular vote had any relevance, she loses when you combine the anti-Clinton votes (trump, johnson,stein)

          I thought more populated states get more electoral college voters. That reflects population in particular states?

          imagine a system where someone wins the presidency with 40% of the popular vote. #scary

          I married the 2 systems together. If you get >50%, you get all the Electoral Votes, otherwise, they are divided up based on %.

          & yet they stay quiet about HRC Superdelegates & how every state in the US gets 2 Senate seats regardless of the state's size.
