So sick of hearing this
There is a reason for it. And no, this is not a Democracy, this is a Constitutional Republic. |

| The system would be fine if States couldn't give a fifth of the presidency to one candidate even if that candidate only received 51% of the vote in that country |

hillary got 61% of the votes in Cali, yet she got 100% of its electoral votes? doesnt make sense.
what about the 39% that didnt vote for hillary in cali..? they were silenced. their votes counted for nothing. doesnt make sense. |

a candidate can win the presidency with 22 percent of the popular vote.
NOT right |

If you don't understand the need for the electoral college, I'm sorry but you're a special kind of stupid.
And that "22%" thing is nearly statistically impossible |

OP resorting to name calling instead of actually supporting his position?
Anyone can make claims without backing them up. Watch this:
If you think there's a need for the electoral college, I'm sorry but you're a special kind of stupid. |

Nobody dislikes the electoral college, they just dislike how a candidate can achieve 1/5 of the presidency by a one vote lead in a single state |

Then don't live in a Constitutional Republic.
And I would absolutely respect the electoral college if Hillary had won. What I would NOT respect is that she is legally able to be President, because she isn't.
Sorry but for the millionth time, felonies disqualify you from political office.
And don't even try that "she wasn't convicted" crap, because every single person knows that she's guilty. |
