@Redistrict 1/Based on where the election stands right now, there are 37,350,155 Trump voters in states that went for Biden, including California. The Electoral College renders their votes irrelevant.
They should be in favor of a popular vote.

@Redistrict 2/Likewise, there are 27,945,265 Biden voters in states that went for Trump. (This number is smaller because Biden won more states, but in 2016, it was the reverse.) Their votes are irrelevant.

@Redistrict 3/There are 6,859,157 "excess" Biden and 4,010,738 "excess" Trump voters in states won by their respective candidates who were unnecessary to carry the state. Their votes are irrelevant.

@Redistrict 4/All in all 44,209,338 Biden & 31,956,028 Trump voters actually determined the 306-232 Electoral College outcome.
That's only 76,165,366 (49.09%) out of 155,153,008 votes cast.
All our votes should matter, & matter equally, regardless of where we live. We need a popular vote.
