Further evidence that the electoral college is ridiculous and needs to go.

Depends on the popular vote margin.

If it's close, we're hopelessly divided.

If the Democrat wins the PV by a fair margin, then it's more evidence how dumb the electoral college is.

If the GOP Nominee wins the electoral vote while losing the popular vote by over 5%, the country would erupt. There needs to at least be limits on the Electoral College.

What map can give the GOP an EC win with a 5% NPV loss?

Let’s play a game to see how weird things can get before they implode!
