I don't like the EC, but I also know that a not so small majority of the people complaining over the EC would be singing its praises if it had ensured victory for Hilary.
I agree I do want it gone, but here is the thing: as Sable said, it's not new. Hilary and Trump both knew about the EC, knew what was needed to win. One person actually tried to campaign in such a way as to win that, the other is Hilary Clinton. It'd be different if she didn't know the rules beforehand. She did, she ignored the advice of people on her campaign. Wisconsin? Pshh, Wisconsin Smissconsin.
What nefarious means do you think Russia used to make her make that choice?
