That's pretty messed up. Bush had 500,000 K more popular votes, but if this map is to be believed, Romney will get almost 4, 000,000 more popular votes, and yet lose...that seems unbelievable.
Also, this shows about 36,000,000 Americans casting a vote for President.....is that accurate??? I knew our voting numbers sucked as a democracy, but out of 300,000,000 of us, only 36 million are going to vote??????? REALLY?
