    Default The Dems have won the popular vote in six out of last seven Presidential elections

    If Biden wins the popular vote in November, it'll be seven out of last eight.
    What does that say about America?
    Republican Congressman Ken Buck:
    “We’re at a time in American politics, that I am not going to lie on behalf of my presidential candidate, on behalf of my party. And I’m very sad that others in my party have taken the position that, as long as we get the White House, it doesn’t really matter what we say,”

    If your goal is to win the Electoral College you need to move some voters out Cali and NY into other parts of the country. I think Newsom, Cuomo and DiBlasio all see that as well and are doing their best to make it happen.

    ANY system wherein the candidate with the LEAST number of votes from the demos WINS cannot be called democratic. Well, not outside of the asylum anyway.

    Winning the popular vote in seven out of the last eight presidential elections, it's hard to deny that the pulse of America is center-left.

    I really believe that Bush/GOP threw out votes in Ohio and other states to give Bush the popular vote win in 2004.

    I don't consider that election legitimate.

    And Georgia too, particularly because of the film industry's growth in Atlanta. There's more production in Atlanta now than there is in NY.

    Obama was a unicorn but outside of him Democratic Presidential candidates went 40 years winning the majority of votes once, Carter when he won 50.1%. Does that argue America is a center-right country?

    What 40 year span are you talking about? Clinton won the popular vote in 1992, 1996. Gore in 2000. Obama in 2008, 2012. Hillary in 2016.

    Are you talking pre-1992 because I don't see it. Carter won the popular vote in 1976. Kennedy & Johnson won it in 1960 & 1964.

    If you're talking about pre-Kennedy, I don't think that's really relevant.

    Yeah. So?

    That a sizable portion of its citizens either do not know how elections in their own country work, or that they wish to fundamentally transform their nation from a Republic into a Democracy (which would quickly dissolve into an Oligarchy or a Dictatorship).

    What it says about you is that you don't understand how the election process works nor why such a system was put in place.

    The tyranny of the minority is in plain sight. I remember Bush saying after the election that he had a mandate. He was as far from one as you can imagine.

    the popular vote is not a contest that is won or lost
