Hillary Clinton told CNN's Anderson Cooper that it is time to abolish the Electoral College and displayed animus for fired FBI Director James Comey.
The candidates who receive a majority of electoral votes among the states are elected President and Vice President of the United States when the Electoral College vote is certified by Congress in January. Each state chooses electors, totaling in number to that state's combined total of senators and representatives.
More Americans voted for Hillary Clinton than any other losing presidential candidate in US history. Donald Trump won 304 electoral votes to Hillary Clinton’s 227, with five Democratic and two Republican “faithless electors” voting for other people. That result was despite the fact that Clinton received nearly 2.9 million more popular votes than Trump in November’s election
