  Republicans are perfectly capable of winning both the popular vote and electoral college. W. Bush did it in 2004, his father in 1988, Reagan twice in 1984 and 1980, Nixon twice, Eisenhower twice.  
  
  Oh and 4.5 million people in California voted for Trump, nearly 3 million in New York. If the EC were changed, middle Americans would have the same voice as everyone else--on person, one vote.
