Original Note:
It's misleading to correlate votes cast with counties won as counties vary widely in size. There are 3,142 counties in the U.S., ranging from very small (fewer than 70 people in Loving County, TX) to very large (10M in LA County). Half of the U.S. reside in 4.6% of counties. https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-votes-counties-election/fact-check-clarifying-the-comparison-between-popular-vote-and-counties-won-in-the-2020-election-idUSKBN2931UY?edition-redirect=in
