    You have a broken interpretation of things.

    Agreed, that’s why a 1-person, 1-vote system >unlike the EC is a good idea!

    No. Coastal states are vastly more populated by a large margin. Texas, Florida, and California hold 1/3 of the entire population. A straight vote means that those will be the states that swing and win elections.

    Lol, what the FUCK gives you that idea? Why is >it that EC supporters imagine states vote as a >unified block if we end the EC? Are you literally >incapable of understanding that different people >in a state vote differently (an idiot), or are you >purposefully pretending that you are (faking >being an idiot, which is being a bigger idiot)

    Because it’s a gimme that politicians from their home state do very well when running for a higher office. Democrats and Republicans will always nominate a candidate from a very populated state for this reason, because it’s always free votes. Surely you aren’t too dumb to have not noticed that?

    Exactly, end the electoral college

    Lol. No. I guess you are an idiot. The electoral college is literally in place to give states a more equal power in picking the president. That’s literally the reason it exists.

      Yawn, more garbage arguments

      Keep arguing for the system of minority rule while claiming you’re against exactly that, the rest of us will point and laugh at you as you deserve
