Like it or not (I don’t), Bernie should indeed have won, a rather surprising result of the poll that my organization conducted:
A better voting method (e.g. Approval Voting) would have produced results that more accurately reflected the will of the people. Note that this is true for all half-million elected offices in the US, not just the pair that uses the Electoral College. However, a better voting method would attract better candidates, so I have hope that Bernie still would have lost, just to someone much worthier than Hillary or Trump.
