Half the people meaning half of the absolute number of people who went voting, which is not true

Since each state votes for their members of the Electoral College, it could happen that, if you count each person who voted directly, you get no way near 50% voting for the president that gets elected

This voting system is stupid, the idea of a law to pardon people as president is even more stupid.

yes that’s possible, thanks for the civics lesson. It’s not what I was talking about.
