Become A US President With Only 22% Of The Popular Vote
In the US, the electoral college drives the presidential election. A candidate will win an election if they obtain more than half of the electoral votes (EV), regardless of the popular vote. For the fifth time in the history of this country, the candidate who won the presidential election, did not win the popular vote. These presidents are John Quincy Adams (1824), Rutherford Hayes (1876), Benjamin Harrison (1888), George W. Bush (2000), and most recently Donald Trump (2016)
