How many here are aware that Originally MOST of the States did not even vote for electors the State Legislature picked them?

Naw- it's like this.
If the EC confirms what the people wanted- then it's okay.
When it chooses someone the PEOPLE clearly rejected, it's no good.
Let's leave aside for a moment that it has given us disasters like Trump and Bush-43.
It forces the election to pander to the interests of a few swing states instead of the whole country. If people in California have to spend a lot of money to swing how Nevada turns out, that's kind of a problem, given California has a lot more people.
As they did their Senators.How many here are aware that Originally MOST of the States did not even vote for electors the State Legislature picked them?
A. Not a Clinton supporter. Never have been, never will be.Instead we let the minority bully the majority.Popular vote. Populous places will have influence.Nope. One person, one vote.
EC was implemented to placate states who's economies depended on slavery.
One person, one vote.
Exactly what that map shows.
and California, New York, Texas, and Florida would make all the decisions.
You know why?
That's where most of the population is!
We live in a Republic which is fifty states that make a Union.
Each State voice matter in the election process and was granted a way to make their State population matter in the process of electing the President.
I know you prefer that States have less say and let the few big States bully the smaller populated States but the founding Fathers were smarter than you when they created this system.
So as you argue the Popular Vote is all that should matter, well it does on your State level but Nationally as a whole for the President it take a back seat to the Electoral College because again we are a Republic of Fifty Individual States and yet you will be daft as usual...
Thanks makes a lotta sense.

Untrue and you have known that every President has been elected this way, so why is it now you disagree with it?
Simple, you hate the reality that the Majority of States rejected Clinton and want a system you can rig to make sure Democrats never lose...

When you are a Republic like ours that is life in electing the President!
Also when this country was created your voice was the House and not the President.
It is sad how you hate the Republic you live in...
Let's also leave aside for a moment that it has prevented even bigger disasters like Gore and Hillary.

That's kind of retarded. We only have ONE national referendum on which way the country should go, and that's a presidential election.
Most people couldn't name their congressman. A regular civics test I practice on people is to ask them the names of our two senators in IL. Most can't guess one.
The people were asked in 2016 which way they wanted to go. They overwealming voted for Mrs. Clinton, but this arcane relic of the 18th century picked Trump, who proves every day he is unfit for office.
Now people are dying because of it.

You're really dense.
The EC guarantees diversity. Guarantees the entire county has a voice.
EC stops 4 pandered states from turning America into a shithole.
They wouldn't have died if Hillary was in charge?
They wouldn't have died if Hillary was in charge?
Probably not. Hillary wouldn't have slashed 700 people from the CDC like Trump did. Hillary wouldn't have ended international cooperation with China. Hillary wouldn't have put a guy who believes in Talking Snakes in charge of the effort.

Can't see how. If Gore was in office, we wouldn't have pissed away Trillions of dollars and thousands of lives in a war in Iraq.

Question: How does a minority with less power bully a majority with more power?Instead we let the minority bully the majority.
Thanks makes a lotta sense.
That map is nonsensical, inherently. States only count as a " Bloc" if there is an electoral college. That map would only make any sense if there was an electrical college, and the electoral votes of each State were in perfect proportion to their populations and all EC votes went to the popular vote winner in each State.Why we have it

Answer: It can't. You're just triggered because the minority has any power at all.
