If you want to nitpick the issue, it becomes a case for proportional representation.
Had the election been decided that way, Hillary would have won.
Before you say it, I am well aware that that isn’t how it works. I’m making the case that its how it SHOULD work. It would prevent officials from avoiding states they don’t think they can win outright, instead making them work for votes everywhere, as a couple of votes here or there could indeed make the difference.
As to what you wrote, though…if the majority of the populace lives in one place, why should they not have more say than a less populated area? Honest question.
