In all 3 elections I'm referring to, the Republican won the popular vote as well, so that's not relevant in this case.

Are you cherry picking elections from before 2004? Democrats have won the last four elections in popular votes.

Or you're talking about 30 years ago for some reason like it matters today.

I was responding to a comment about Jimmy Carter losing the election. Seems pretty relevant to me.
