<human>:  Why is it that the candidate who wins the most votes doesn’t always win the election?
<bot>: That’s because the Electoral College is not a democracy. It’s a representative democracy. The Electoral College is a system in which each state gets a number of electors equal to the number of Senators and Representatives that it has in Congress. The electors then vote for a President and Vice President. The candidate who wins the most votes in the Electoral College wins the election.
