Vision 2020: Electoral College vs popular vote in America
Sep 14, 2020 34 secs
WASHINGTON -- Election Question: Why is it that one candidate can win the popular vote but another wins the electoral vote and thus the presidency?

Four candidates in history have won a majority of the popular vote only to be denied the presidency by the Electoral College.

But she lost the presidency due to Trump’s winning margin in the Electoral College, which came after he pulled out narrow victories in less populated Midwestern states like Michigan and Wisconsin.

But there’s a separate movement that calls for a compact of states to allocate all their electoral votes to the national popular vote winner, regardless of how those individual states opted in an election.
