Sorry (well not really) but I think the AC is an anachronistic joke. Every single campaign just floods a handful of areas. A handful of voters have WAY too much power. While we should amend the Constitution to get rid of the EC, this is a States’ Rights matter. They get to assign their EVs as they please. So if one has a problem with this, it again pints out with this anachronism.
Get rid of the EVs. I hope the States do this. And besides, if you can’t get a majority of the people to elect your guy, you don’t deserve to have your guy elected. Every other election in this Nation is popular vote.
You do realize that the term “State” and not “Province” is used to describe each State?
Do you understand why? Because the word State means “country”. We are fifty separate countries united by a Constitution. Each candidate for the Presidency of this union of countries is elected by fifty separate countries. Each one of those countries deserves to have the right to have a voice in the election of their President.
That is why the Electoral College is important. Each country (State) in the union deserves to have a solid, form voice. Not just the thirty biggest metropolitan areas.
