A new Morning Consult poll shows Kamala Harris leading Donald Trump nationally, 51% to 45%.
Key takeaway: “Her 51% of support among likely voters, which is also at a record high, is driven largely by her best figures to date among Democrats, Biden 2020 voters, liberals, women, 18- to 34-year-olds and millennials.
No, you’ve got it right. Most often the electoral vote follows the popular vote. There has only been twice in history when it didn’t. One was Trump in 2016. Clinton won the popular vote. For Trump to do that twice is a very low probability.
Ohhh you just mean “there’ve only been 2 times in history where the popular vote disagreed with the electoral vote.”
When you said “only 2 times the popular vote was greater than the electoral vote” it sounded like you were comparing the size of the popular vote to the size of the electoral vote. Which would be silly, b/c the popular vote is always larger than the electoral vote lol
I could have phrased it better.
Wrong.
