You'd have to ask CNN. They lie about everything else so who knows how they worded it 🤷♂️ and it just so happens that our federal government was not set up to be majority rule.
Why do you think we are the "United States of America" and not just "America"? At the base of the whole thing is state sovereignty. The states elect the leaders that preside over the country, not the majority because while it is good for most people to agree on legislation, a majority left to its own devices becomes a mob. Thats why there are two legislative chambers. One based in population of a state (majority rule) and one with equal representation regardless of population. Add up each of these seats for any given state and that is how much influence that state has in choosing the leader of our republic. Is it fool proof? No, but no institution of man will be.
It does, however give more power and freedoms to its people than any other government on earth and thats why there are thousands of people currently living under an overpass waiting to jump the border to enter, not to exit.
The only time the electoral college is an issue is when uneducated shills complain about it.
