    The “Lost popular vote” angle is only going to get worse over time. As the Senate/EC gets more and more comically lopsided in popular representation and climate change eats into the bigger Gulf Coast states, you’re going to see people winning the White House with 10-15M popular vote deficits in the next few decades.

    California alone constitutes more than 12% of the total population but less than 10% of the EC.
