This episode focuses on the 1996 Clinton v Dole presidential election, and Evan made a rather prescient comment that a candidate can win the popular vote but lose the election. This episode was broadcast just before the 2016 Hillary Clinton v Trump election, and guess what, Clinton wins the popular vote bigly but loses the electoral college:(
Also, it would have been fascinating if Evan had mentioned how a European country like Austria run their presidential elections, where the candidate winning the popular vote actually wins the election, gee how quaint.
