text: Five reasons why the Electora College should be restained despite its lack of democratic." The winners takes all bases". What is that, why would we use that. In 2012 President Obama received 61.7% of the electoral votes compared to only 51.3% of the popular votes cast for him and Romney, says in source 3: In defence of the Electoral College.
