    This isn’t strictly true. People did show up to vote for Hillary, but not in electorally advantageous locations. Let’s not forget that she won the popular vote, it just wasn’t enough.

      she won the popular vote

      That’s like saying a team shot the most free-throws in a sport like basketball where the winner is the one who scored the most points. Or in football, having the most minutes of possession, but not scoring enough points.

      The metric to winning is rather clear. Whether it is football, basketball or winning the White House.

      You don’t get enough people out there across the country to win the EC and you lose. Period. So yeah, it is indeed strictly true.
