Answer 1

O. Makes it possible for candidates to lose the popular vote, yet win the elections

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Electoral College Voting, found in the US Election, it is a system whereby the winner of the popular votes in a given state takes all the electoral college vote found in that state. Some state has higher college votes than others.

Due to unequal college votes across the country, it is possible for the total popular votes cast for a candidate to be higher while the other candidate wins the election through massive election college votes gotten. A typical election scenario is between Hillary Clinton and Trump in 2016.
