You are right, it is the electoral college votes and the big States who in the main decide this in numbers from them.

It could well be a candidate could actually be leading the popular vote yet not get the numbers needed from the electoral college votes.

Hillary Clinton should easily and for me hopefully have some of the biggest States, namely California as an example of one.
