| | President Elect - Articles - An analysis of the U.S. Presidential Election of 2000 |
 | | Eleven states (Alaska, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Indiana, and Virginia), now worth 62 Electors in the Electoral College, haven't voted for the Democratic Party ticket in a presidential election for 36 years nine elections in a row. |
 | | Democratic candidates in presidential elections over the past half-century have won an average of 46.1% of the popular vote. |
 | | Within days of her own election, Hillary Clinton said "I believe strongly that in a democracy, we should respect the will of the people and to me, that means it's time to do away with the Electoral College and move to the popular election of our president." Bi-partisan proposals are already going forward in Congress. |
