The country may have experienced a red wave after all. It just didn't translate into the electoral outcomes that have historically accompanied major political shifts — and after the initial wave of instant narratives extemporized by pundits on election night, close observers are now just beginning to dig for the reasons underlying the model-shattering disconnect.

As we often told the democrats we they exclaimed that Hillary Clinton got the most votes, in elections, the national popular vote does not matter. Our elections are made up of numerous smaller elections and those are the ones that matter.
