It's not that simple, thanks to the Electoral College. If electing a president was based on popular vote, the last several Republican presidents wouldn't have been elected.
But thanks to how the Electoral College works, getting elected is based more on strategically winning specific states. Texas, for example, has several deep blue cities with some of the largest populations in the country. Yet, all 50-something electoral votes go to Republicans, because Republicans win the popular vote in the state. The will of those millions of people is discarded and flipped due to the other areas voting differently.
