Wasn't the purpose of it to prevent a regional candidate from winning? It encourages and mandates a candidate to have broad national support rather than a huge amount of support in a part of the country.

"it isn't the candidate's fault she lost, it's the system!" Hillary and the Democratic party deserve all the blame in the world for disregarding the rules under which she was playing and prioritizing the popular vote. Also, the rules are bad and should be changed going forward, as I believe that would produce results that better reflect the will of the people. --- an aspirin the size of the sun. ...

The word you're looking for, guys, is plurality. A majority entails more than 50%, which Hillary did not get.
Also, if I may: a shoutout to parliamentary systems without ranked voting, runoffs, or proportional representation. In the UK, a majority of seats will be held by parties that reached 45% of the vote. --- an aspirin the size of the sun. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Trump's support was more evenly and more efficiency distributed over the country. Hillary won by a land slide in California, a sign of a regional candidate.

Then all politicians would do is visit the big states and ignore all the small states. The math on this doesn't check out; even if every voter in the 9 largest states voted the same way, you wouldn't get a majority of the popular vote (based on 2016 totals). And that entails six red states and three blue ones. Alternatively, you would need the votes of every man, woman, and child in the metropolitan areas of NYC, LA, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, and DC. --- an aspirin the size of the sun. ...
