How to use "By narrow margin" in context?
In recent years, many Americans have come to view the Electoral College as an antiquated relic of a bygone era. Proponents of moving to a direct election system argue that it would lead to more accurate representation of the population, while detractors maintain that it is an important safeguard against majoritarian rule. A new report from The Nation, though, suggests that the Electoral College might not be as secure as we thought. The report, based on findings from a study by FiveThirtyEight, finds that the Electoral College gives a narrow advantage to Republican candidates - by a margin of almost two million votes.
