The Electoral College is a very important part of our government and should not be dissolved.

It’s not perfect, but it’s better than a system where a candidate need only campaign in NYC, LA, Houston, SF, Detroit, Portland, Seattle, Austin, and a few other big cities to win.

In fact, without the Electoral College, there would be NO NEED to represent ANY rural citizen, at all, at least so far as winning elections is concerned.

Ditto!
The Electoral College is the perfect vehicle for the ‘distribution’ of political power ever created!
Tyranny requires the concentration of power!
