I’m just amazed how the population has grown so much since then

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:04:07 UTC  

And what’s even weirder is the electoral votes for 2016 don’t match the popular

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:04:12 UTC  

And every other time they did

R9b1t

Big think

R9b1t

So apparently the electoral college was enacted before slavery ended

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:07:19 UTC  

However the popular vote always lined up until 1876

Table Praiser
2019-02-01 05:10:44 UTC  

Especially the recent ones

It makes sense really, the way the population is spread out

Table Praiser
2019-02-01 05:11:09 UTC  

Cities are usually more blue

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:11:18 UTC

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:11:25 UTC

its just idiotic to throw your vote away by voting for either of those two parties

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:12:01 UTC  

I mean and I always saw it electoral always wins so when the electoral was high for trump I kept thinking: “you fools.”

The EC has a lot of issues

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:12:48 UTC  

And these elections are always split down the middle

Table Praiser
2019-02-01 05:13:01 UTC  

It's a good way to pretend to have a democracy

Analytical Chick
2019-02-01 05:13:25 UTC  

It's not supposed to be a democracy

R9b1t
2019-02-01 05:13:29 UTC  

Yeah I can’t pin us down

Redneo
2019-02-01 05:13:32 UTC  

@Table Praiser the main issue being that people which will not die in the wars they vote for get to vote

Analytical Chick
2019-02-01 05:13:33 UTC  

It's supposed to be a repubilc

Table Praiser
2019-02-01 05:13:38 UTC  

Exactly

Analytical Chick
2019-02-01 05:13:42 UTC  

It's not that, either.
