Why Donald Trump Will Likely Win A Second Term As President

Huff Post  

Justice Brent Kavanaugh and President Donald Trump are likely not the last of their conservative, white leadership class. Supporters of the Electoral College argue that the system insulates the executive branch from the whims of an uninformed public and balances power between sparsely populated rural states and densely populated urban states. While the three-fifths arrangement has been eliminated, the original configuration of the Electoral College maintains that deep imbalance between rural states and urban states, which now systematically favors white voters. As Graph 1 shows, rural states in 2016 had one electoral vote for every 393,293 residents, whereas urban states had one electoral vote for every 590,081 residents. Population per Electoral Vote in Rural, Semi-rural and Urban States Data comes from the 2016 American Community Survey.
