We're getting into semantics about direct vs indirect. Via the electoral college means that if you're in the minority, your vote turns into a vote for the opposite of what you want.

I realise no system is perfect but would you still say voters chose the President in a (hypothetical) even more heavily weighted system where the elected president lost the popular vote by 10percent? How about 20?
