Yes, that's possible.
Happened in both the 2000 election and the 2016 election, where both times, the Democratic candidate had the popular vote, but lost the EC vote.

Whether or not it's fair is up to who you ask. Conservatives believe it's fair because the EC gives more representation to the smaller states, while Democrats believe it's unfair because people who vote against the majority in the state are not represented and because it has an inaccurate representation of the population of the United States.

What do the countries of the “near abroad” all have in common?
ankoles [38]
The "near abroad" is the way the Russian politicians refer to the countries that gained independence after the collapse of the Soviet Union; such as Latvia and Ukraine. 

They all have a Russian minority (of the Russians who emigrated there when it was a Soviet Republic) and the Citizens of those countries often speak Russian as a foreign or native language. 

Also, they often have close ties to Russia, such as trade ties due to both the geographical proximity and to the infrastructure which was established while they were a part of the Soviet Union
