The alternative is those tiny unpopulated states having more power than states with 40 times their populationWhy we have it
/---/ Actually we accept the EC results - it's Libtards who want to change the rules so they win.
/---/ Ever since democRATs counted Black Americans as 3/5 of a person and gave them 5/3 of a vote they wanted to restrict the voting rights of Republicans.The alternative is those tiny unpopulated states having more power than states with 40 times their populationWhy we have it

Of course they do. One vote for every person. Why should they count for more just because nobody wants to live in their crappy states?Popular vote. Populous places will have influence.Nope. One person, one vote.Why we have it

At the time of the Constitution, ALL 13 colonies allowed slavery, so EC was implemented to placate states whose economies depended on agriculture Vermont was the first state to ban slavery. It did so in 1777.

Again, and I'll type slow so you can follow. ALL of the 13 colonies had slavery at the time the EC was created. The concern was the industrial North would run roughshod over the less populated Southern agricultural states. And yes, there was the compromise that each Black would be counted as 3/5 a person. And yes the South was more dependant on slave labor than the North. And yes, slavery was a factor to get the Southern Democrats to go along. But it is not a clear cut answer like you pretend.
That's already a known. But the truth is, its urban versus rural. And all the degrees in between.
You mean the kind of change that Hillary caused when she lost?

Yes just from the right rather than the left.
It would appear neither side has any integrity.
