The US Voting System Is A Representative Democracy Where People Vote & There Votes Are Given To The Electoral College With 538 Representatives & Those Representatives Are Split Between The States By Population But If A Population Has Less Than 3 Votes There Given 2 Extra Votes From Bigger States Which Seems Fair But These Electors Can Vote However Including Against There Population Which Is Why Sometimes A Candidate That Won The Minority Is President. This Recently Happened Trump Won Around 62,000,000 Votes & Clinton Won 65,000,000 But Trump Won More Electoral Votes. So The US System Isn’t Exactly Fair But This Is In Any Country With Representative Democracy So It’s Not Just The US.
