No matter which side you're supporting in this presidential election, one thing is clear to me: we need to get rid of the antiquated electoral college. This system of voting for electors instead of directly voting for the candidate may have made sense in colonial times, but it certainly doesn't make sense now and hasn't for a long time.
In this day of computers, ever person's vote should count.
I hate that many people will feel betrayed when they vote for one candidate and then hear that their state's xx number of electoral votes were all cast for the other candidate. It's happened to me many times and I for one, am sick of this xxxx.
When will we modernize our presidential elections?
