Europe is an example of that

2019-01-08 22:06:44 UTC  

Aye

2019-01-08 22:06:47 UTC  

@HM - King of UK + Commonwealth America use a first past the post style system and hillary got the most votes but Trump won

2019-01-08 22:07:14 UTC  

That can happen and it’s still fair

2019-01-08 22:07:16 UTC  

STV dosent have that problem because you continue giving votes to second choices until a party has a majority

2019-01-08 22:07:23 UTC  

How is that fair?

2019-01-08 22:07:30 UTC  

It had happened four times before

2019-01-08 22:07:35 UTC  

Trump got a landslide victory without the popular vote

2019-01-08 22:07:43 UTC  

It happened before dosent make it fair...

2019-01-08 22:07:57 UTC  

It's effectively making some peoples vote worth more than others

2019-01-08 22:08:02 UTC  

Bush jr did it in 2000 and hardly anyone complained

2019-01-08 22:08:12 UTC  

Well they shouldve complained

2019-01-08 22:08:21 UTC  

Cos it's bullshit whoever it happens to

2019-01-08 22:08:50 UTC  

Oh yes they should of complained the fact is oh no they didn’t

2019-01-08 22:09:03 UTC  

And the point is?

2019-01-08 22:09:18 UTC  

The system is broken no matter how much people complain

2019-01-08 22:09:31 UTC  

It happened in the uk Election in 1951

2019-01-08 22:09:42 UTC  

I get your point

2019-01-08 22:09:50 UTC  

Conservative won a overall majority labour got most votes

2019-01-08 22:09:55 UTC  

It's not my problem that people didn't complain back then

Poor Attlee

2019-01-08 22:09:58 UTC  

I wasn't alive

2019-01-08 22:10:06 UTC  

But I'm alive now and I'm complaining now

2019-01-08 22:10:35 UTC  

There where people alive in 2000 who are complaining now

2019-01-08 22:10:44 UTC  

OK but I'm not one of them

2019-01-08 22:11:11 UTC  

Anti trump people crying losers tears

2019-01-08 22:11:29 UTC  

Like how is it logical that the fact other people didnt complain about unfair elections means that I'm not allowed to complain about them now

2019-01-08 22:11:34 UTC  

Where is the logic

2019-01-08 22:11:55 UTC  

It dosent make a difference if its trump or not

2019-01-08 22:12:12 UTC  

If bernie won without popular vote I'd call him out on it

2019-01-08 22:12:48 UTC  

It makes the votes of people in swing states many times more valuable than those of people in large states like Texas or California

2019-01-08 22:13:07 UTC  

Idk about you but that dosent sound like democracy to me

2019-01-08 22:13:13 UTC  

True which is fair

2019-01-08 22:13:27 UTC  

So you admit it's a problem?

But the problem is that the US has to do that

2019-01-08 22:13:39 UTC  

It not a problem at all

The US is a weird country

The States have so much freedom

And that's why the Electoral College basically upgrades them

2019-01-08 22:14:15 UTC  

Every vote counts wether it be in a marginal or a safe area

The US can't be compared to any othee nation to the way the Government works
