This is on the DNC and Democratic primary voters who prevented Bernie from winning the Democratic nomination in a year and political climate in which it was so blatantly obvious he had a better chance to beat Trump than Hillary did.
They would have called this election by 9pm Central for Bernie.

This on the "greatest democracy on earth" still having an old horseshit electoral system. AGAIN the candidate with the popular vote wont be president. Thats a giant pile of democracy horseshit. Yeah every vote counts the same blabla.

Also the 3638393 ways of throwing sticks between the legs of certain people/groups to make sure they wont/cant vote (*coughrepublicanscough*)

Your whole democratic system is broken. Since long time. And everyone knows and dont do shit about it...

Think of it more like rewarding a team based on the number of games won v. the number of points scored. Beating Philadelphia by 50 counts the same as beating Cleveland by 1. We've got no patience for Hollinger's sh*t analytics here.

Hm, in England, they have a similar system. US is probably harder to run than Belgium, but i agree in general. Maybe there should be a 10% scale or quintiles, where votes are attributed when you climb the next scale.
But the US system has an advantage, because it balances the votes of the cities vs. people on the countrysite. Not perfectly, but to a certain degree.

As for the example Brexit. Every poll station in England had "out" except for London and the result was not 80/20, haha, because there are 10 million living in the London area.
I wonder what the vote of an egypt farmer, 10 miles off of Kairo, is worth...
