Why might electing a president with a minority vote be more controversial under a popular vote system than under the Electoral college system?

In order to win in the electoral college, a majority is required. There is no such thing as a minority winner there. If no one gets a majority, the House of Representatives elects the President from the three top vote-getters. Every state gets one vote. If they choose a candidate with a minority of the votes, the result would probably be just as controversial as when a person with a plurality of popular votes loses in the electoral college.
