in 2016, for instance, Hillary won the popular vote by 2.9 million votes. She won the popular vote in California 4.3 million votes.

But also the link below, which (I haven't read his post yet) I assume Greg is also making this point.

In particular, in one of the comments at my link:


For all its quirks and weirdness, the American electoral system maybe gives Republicans a 10% advantage at converting votes to seats. The French have ~75% advantages for some parties and the British just cracked ~130%.

I've made this point to you before (that the system(s) in Europe are even worse at getting to 'the person who gets the most votes wins the election' but maybe that's not your actual complaint?
