Every election this same thing comes up. The Electoral College still works, why get rid of it?
The electoral college prevents corruption from crossing state boundaries. No amount of cheating in Chicago can cross the state boundary to affect the electoral votes in Indiana.
That is why the Democrats have to do away with it. They would rather than have to cheat in several states, and have their weaker organizations stopped and exposed, they would prefer that their stronger organizations in states that they have already corrupted can dominate. Even if their opponents win, it would only be by matching corruption, and good government would be doomed.
