What a difference the EC makes. If America had the same system, Hillary would be in the WH

today. (I won't say she would have won, because she DID win).

In France, everyone's vote has the same value. If I'm not mistaken, that's the way it works in every voting nation.

The outdated EC is destroying America.

It's na bittersweet day. Happy for France, but this revives the pain and twists the knife I have in my heart since Nov 8th.

It could have been us celebrating a bright, great future of America. With out the EC, no one could have stopped her. It's a system too easy to manipulate.
