The world is trying to make sense of the U.S. electoral college
Briefly

The electoral college is not a place; instead, it is a patchwork of winner-takes-all elections at the state level, which can be confusing, especially to international audiences.
Understanding that the candidate with the most votes doesn't always win is a concept that puzzles many globally, evidenced by past elections like Trump's over Clinton.
Each state receives two electors for its senators and additional electors based on population, meaning the system is not as straightforward as it seems.
The winner-takes-all approach creates a unique voting dynamic that is similar to a boxing match, highlighting the complexity of the electoral college.
