As mentioned, the Electoral College was set up to prevent large states from running roughshod over small ones. Otherwise candidates would only have to campaign in NY, CA, FL, TX, and maybe PA and they can tell the rest of the country to go to hell, that what you want doesn't matter and your vote doesn't count. That's what disenfranchising means. The system has been the same for over 200 years. Everyone knows what you need to do to win. The Dems' problem is that they figured they'd get enough votes from the coasts and large cities to offset the votes from the people in middle America that they've thrown away and don't really want to have to appeal to. You know, those folks who drive pickup trucks and quads and eat bacon.
SV has greatly moderated his tone since he last posted here. Never go full Libtard.Nobody who calls himself a civil libertarian would be wishing that Trump lost to Hillary. She would enact cradle to grave complete federal government control of everything, from daycare to healthcare to higher education to financial institutions.. No matter what he does or doesn't do he won't be worse than her.
