We vote for President by state, not nationally.
If you're in California, your vote counts as 1 person, just like every Californian.
If you're in New York, your vote counts as 1 person, just like every New Yorker.
If you're in North Dakota, your vote counts 1 person, just like every North Dakotan..
This isn't rocket science and those who can't grasp this simple concept should be embarrassed mortified.
We vote by state in the hope that the one your state votes for will be the next President. Just like you vote for the Representatives and Senators for your state.
In 1840 "we" didn't let blacks vote at all. It was wrong. And this is wrong. In England, at one time, no one was allowed to vote and the person who owned the most land (the king) had complete power.
Sometimes humans evolve and get more just. Often it comes along with the crooks kicking and screaming.

They like the system because it's how they get to win elections despite losing by 2.1% you can argue that it's unjust until you're blue in the face but it won't matter because conservatives fundamentally lack a sense of justice. That is part of their core character that makes them conservatives. They don't give a shit about anyone outside of their group. If they did they would be liberals.

Lol god damn this is bullshit. Why do you guys give a shit about popular vote? The system is based on electoral college, everyone knows this. You complaining about this is like "I lost my game of chess because they took my queen BUT I TOOK MORE OF THEIR PIECES!"
So what?
If you want to win the presidency, campaign in states where you need it to give you 270. She failed, and now people think it's a conspiracy, they're retarded.

Conspiracy? Where do you get that from?
The system sucks. It gives small states more power than large states. Again. You like it because it allows conservatives to win despite being outnumbered by liberals. It's affirmative action for republicans.

On the other hand - Anton Scalia didn't vote against an Ayahuasca church (Uniao de Vegetal). Sometimes conservative people can end up being more just than liberals - amazingly enough.

Unless it's already been said for an umpteenth time, we live in a federal republic for a reason, as this problem dated back to the earliest days of the country when the Founding Fathers were afraid of Pennsylvania and Massachusetts dominating the rest of the United States; Smaller states like Maine and Rhode Island were reluctant at joining the union until they were certain that they would have guarantees against the hegemony of larger states.
It's a system that has worked well for centuries. If it ain't broke, why fix it?

do you not understand that a North Dakota or Wyoming or Alaska or Montana vote is worth more than twice that of a California vote according to the electoral college?
It's actually more. The 40 million people in California are worth 55 electoral votes. The 40 million people living in the lowest population states are worth 120 electoral votes
Hillary Clinton would have won the electoral college as well if states were given mathematically proportional electoral votes

Everything I just posted is true, not a conspiracy theory. You are welcome to do the math, if you are capable. The states where trump won have over 40 more electoral votes than their population would dictate if they were awarded proportionally based on population instead of giving small states a minimum of 3, 4 or 5 when then only deserve 1,2 or 3.
Clinton: 277 Trump: 261
