    Or to put it differently they’ve won the popular vote once in the past 30 years. The last Republican to be president without losing the popular vote in their first election was in 1988, he then proceeded to lose, and his son only won the popular vote in his second term in part thanks to a patriotic fervor following 9/11. Incidentally, there are voters born after that election.
