There's a push for California to secede. Dims better hope that never happens, if it did, it might be many years before they ever win the popular vote again.

Donald Trump's opponents are having something of a field day with news that Hillary Clinton's lead in the popular vote currently tops 1 million.
As US News put it, "Trump's legitimacy has been called into question by his adversaries because he didn't win the popular vote, adding to the desire among his critics to defy him from the start of his administration."
The Nation alerted its readers that "Republican nominee will become president with less popular support than a number of major-party candidates who lost races for the presidency." (The Nation conveniently ignores the fact that Bill Clinton won his first race with just 43% of the popular vote.)
California Sen. Barbara Boxer introduced a bill to eliminate the Electoral College, calling it an "undemocratic system that does not reflect our modern society that."
