Should the electoral college be eliminated?
with it, a person could loose every state by 1 vote except california, and win california by a landslide and then loose the race. with it, democrats in red states feel thier vote doesn't count, and republicans in blue states feel thier vote doesn't count. if the electoral college were to be eliminated, then everyone's vote would count. |

what's the percentage of voter turn out? if you campaign and get 100 million votes and only 170 million actually voted you're going to win. LA and NYC usually vote liberal, unless im mistaken.

LA and NYC usually vote liberal, unless im mistaken. but, if everyone's vote counts, more people might vote. as it stands, the candidates didn't try to win many states in the last election. ohio, florida, and i can't think of too many other places.. |
