Let's be honest that data didn't matter, and that moron was going to win anyways given the other choice was somehow worst.

I dont know where you're pulling that idea from, and the 'other choice' got 3 million more votes than the moron.

Not where it counted. There are a lot of issues with the electoral college but it's our system for better or worse. Gotta play the game and you can't focus on urban populations to the detriment of more rural areas.

a 'game' which makes some voters important and others not is not a fair game.

>you can't focus on urban populations to the detriment of more rural areas.It's obvious bulls*t which is why no other country copied it in the 250 years since it was created.The preamble of the Declaration says 'all men are created equal' not 'rural populations must have extra political power per capita because the real equality is between chunks of land, not people'
