The Electoral College



As I write, the 2016 presidential elections of the USA are still being tallied, with Trump having a 238-215 electoral vote lead over Clinton (270 needed to win).  It's a funny system, the Electoral College of the Americans, where you vote for someone to vote for you.  Sometimes the popular vote doesn't get the vote, like when Al Gore lost to George W. Bush in 2000.  Oh well, that's life!
