This year we're heading to the biggest EV and PV split since 1890s.

More votes of CA came in.
This might push Clinton as the PV winner.
Sad!

Off topic: thanks for the moderator to move this thread to 'political debate'
This is just an opinion poll; I voted yes but I don't think it will be abolished in any time soon.
It's been an American tradition.

Today, failed Democratic presidential candidate Michael Dukakis (MA) called for an end to Electoral College, in the wake of Hillary going to win quadraple of Gore's margin.

Dukakis only lost by 7% of the PV but lost by a lopsided EV margin of 426-111, with one elector casting his vote for Lloyd Bentsen instead of him.
