My brother delights in pointing out that the Yankees outscored the Pirates 55-27 in the 1960 World Series, but the Pirates won the title 4 games to 3.

Not a bad analogy to the Electoral College.

And why did the Pirates win? The Rules. (You know, those pesky details both sides agreed to beforehand).

That's like the chess match where one player captures the most pieces, but the other player captures the King.
