If you wondered why we have the Electoral College this year's election is perfect example of why the founders set up a system that keeps a select few population centers from ruling over the majority of the population. therealrevo.com/blog/?p=153177Hillary Clinton Has Two Million More Popular Votes Than TrumpOne of the reasons is California where she got 3.5 million more than he. She got all of California’s 55 Electoral College votes. She also won all of New York’s 29 electoral votes while getting 1.5 million more votes there than Trump. So, between the two states she got five million more votes than he did and got all of their electors. What that means, though, is that in the rest of the 48 states she received three million Fewer popular votes than did Trump.
