Wrong meme. But I'm sad and this is a sad bear

In 2016 Donald Trump was elected into office by the Electoral College which supersedes the popular vote.

Orange idiot: 304
Hillary Clinton: 227

Popular votes:
Convicted felon: 62,984,828
Found lawfully using her emails: 65,853,514

I could see the future of the 2024 election going the same way where the populace votes for Biden but some old useless system dictates that we have an infinite lifetime of an orange dictator and his cronies

For those not in the US here's some history. Way back 246 years ago when most of the population was uneducated, illiterate, and got most of their news from someone shouting in the town square, our forefathers created the electoral college. This system was essentially created to give fairness to areas of small populations with large land. It helped bring a voice of the populace into a smaller number based on land mass AND population rather than just population. At the time most who voted couldn't read the laws being passed. So this made some sense.

Fast forward to today and the system still exists. You have some states that will only be voting Blue or Red but then you have swing states and this is where the issue lies. A state like California has its voices dominated by large urban communities (ie los Angeles, San Francisco, and so forth) rather than the smaller populace in towns you and I have never heard of. Even still the voices of those smaller towns are heard in both the house and Senate by (gerrymandered) voting districts. But what happens when 1 major city like say Boulder Colorado votes blue and the rest of the state votes red. The electoral college of the state of Colorado would vote 1(b) and 9(r) for 10 total votes. This means that the 20% of the population outside of Boulder has more say than the 80% within

Please understand that not all of this is 100% factual. Colorado has 10 electoral votes. I have no idea how they are dictated or where the votes are coming from. My issue is that the electoral college has the ability to nullify the popular vote. This doesn't happen often (1824 house, 1876, 1888, 200, 2016 provided by wiki) but it happened in 2016 and I wouldn't be surprised if it occurs again here in 2024 by the magats who have fully infected the US government

I'm not saying don't vote. Every single one counts. I'm saying everyone should be worried about this and sending letters to their Senate/house representatives to abolish a system that no longer benefits the country. Our voices are heard and ignored by this system. It needs to end
