Event Description

George W. Bush was elected president in 2000 despite losing the national popular vote to Al Gore, due to the electoral college system, which Krassner characterizes as rigged.

Quoted Evidence

When George W. Bush was elected president in the year 2000, it was due to the electoral college (a rigged system which originally intended to prevent slaves from voting and evolved to gerrymandering), even though Bush's opponent, Al Gore, won the national popular vote.
