You keep saying this, but the point is not that the Dems can't win. They can and have. The point is that there is a vast systemic inequity in elections which, for all practical intents and purposes, has no solution.

Even if I were for the electoral college, the electoral college was never intended to function in a system where we have this kind of asymmetric population density and this degree of un-representation in the House. In the 25 presidential elections of the 20th century,
not once did the candidate who lost the popular vote win the EC. Of the 6 presidential elections in the 21st century, it's already happened
twice.
Sure, Dems can win. But can we at least acknowledge that they have a *huge* systemic handicap if being able to win a clear majority of popular support is not sufficient to actually hold Congress or the Presidency?
