Focusing on the national popular vote is akin to saying the Yankees won the 1960 World Series because they outscored the Pirates 55 runs to 27.
While that’s true, the the Pirates won the World Series because they beat the Yankees four times out of seven games.
Total runs is an interesting statistic, and factors into winning, but that’s not THE metric for determining the winner.
Same with Presidential Elections.
Leftists have been destroying baseball by changing the rules in order to allow 10 men on the lineup card (designated hitter.)
They’ll get around to reversing the 1960 Works Series.
