Quote:Hillary won this election by almost 3 million votes...
No source needs to be cited, since far too many people have said this...
But it's quite wrong.
Elections are not determined by the popular vote - they're Constitutionally decided by the Electoral College. This should be difficult to understand, yet in many Presidential election cycles we have, the same nonsense keeps coming up.
Nor will it ever be changed - it would require the votes of the very people that the Electoral College was meant to help to eliminate it - and people are simply too smart to vote contrary to their best interests.
