This just feels like further proof he rigged the election

False. The system is rigged. The electoral college is bullshit. A state like Alaska gets the same weight as my home state of California. We have forty-five times as many people. It’s fucking infuriating and it’s a consequence of kicking the slavery-can down the road back in the day.

False. Alaska gets 3 votes California gets 54. You do get the same number of senators.

Thanks for the correction. I knew this and still tripped on it.
