Republicans constantly talk about the system being rigged.

The president lost the popular vote in the 2016 election 3 million votes.

In 2018, Democratic Senate candidates received 12 million more votes than Republicans, but the GOP gained 2 seats.

Also in 2018, according to the AP, gerrymandering in favor of Republicans meant the GOP gained 16 seats more than they should have, based purely on vote share. (Democratic House candidates received 9.7 million more votes.) https://apnews.com/article/9fd72a4c1c5742aead977ee27815d776">https://apnews.com/article/9...

Since 2012, Republicans have gained roughly 19 seats in the US House *each election* due to gerrymandering. https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/democracy/news/2019/10/01/475166/impact-partisan-gerrymandering/">https://www.americanprogress.org/issues/de...

Republicans control 30 state legislatures, in some cases with supermajorities. Most of them do not reflect voters in their states, thanks to gerrymandering. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2019/7/5/20680124/state-legislatures-gerrymandering-redistricting">https://www.vox.com/policy-an...

GOP voter suppression--ranging from voter ID requirements to closing polling locations to voter roll purges to laws that explicitly disenfranchise Native American voters to former felon voting restrictions--disenfranchise millions of would-be voters. https://www.npr.org/2018/10/23/659784277/republican-voter-suppression-efforts-are-targeting-minorities-journalist-says">https://www.npr.org/2018/10/2...

The system is absolutely rigged. In favor of Republicans.

But they want you to believe that there is mass voter fraud happening--there isn& #39;t--or that mail-in voting is more susceptible to fraud--it isn& #39;t--and distract from the real issues: gerrymandering and disenfranchisement.
