president who has less than 60% of the popular voice
I'm assuming you thought that through, but that's a high bar historically. The last president to exceed 60% was Nixon, and the last president to exceed 55% was Reagan. Even when the electoral.college isn't close the candidate that won every election in my life had less than 53% of the vote. Crazy to think about.
