History of the electoral college READ....
#11
RE: History of the electoral college READ....
Surely any system with two parties who won't work to earn people's votes and that rely on the fear of the other party isn't democratic? If the only realistic option for so many people was to vote for Hilary, how is that democracy? If there is only one candidate is worth voting for each presidential election then the US might as well be a dictatorship.

I say get rid of "winner takes", have a proportional system and get rid of the electoral college. Would make the big parties work harder for votes. Also get money out of politics; stop politicians from being owned by big money interests. I bet al-Saud is so butthurt that Hilary didn't win.
