2. Nationals don't matter. Why we hang on them so tightly is a mystery.

5. How many times in US history has the popular and electoral vote diverged?

If Clinton beats Trump by 5% in the popular vote, he's not going to win the electoral college.

7. It's happened four times. That's about 10% -- twice the confidence level in polling margin of error.

15. It's happened 1 time since 1888, out of more than 30 presidential elections since then.

And that 1 time involved some serious shenanigans.

The fact is there's a strong correlation between winning the popular vote and reaching 270+.

6. or...

>pop vote %, the more likely close house seats will flip.

There is a correlation. Gerrymandering assures votes in a normal election, but it also means in a wave they canbe swamped because they rely on a thin buffer of votes to hold. Exceed that margin, and the district flips.
