text: Another reason is that, the candidates can then be elected honestly, by people who listen thoughtfully. With the Electoral College, there are swing states. These states use the winner-take-all-method, and are normally a toss up. Most competing candidates focus on these toss-up states to try and secure the vote for them, and as some would argue, this prevents candidates from visiting smaller states, all becuase they want the most votes, but in truth, the candidates are vistiting the swing states becuase they are thoughtful voters. The positive thing with swing states are that the voters within them, know they are a part of the deciding vote of the president. This means that they pay much closer attention to the election and things happening within it, and the candidates stances on many different topics. This allows voters in swing states to vote fairly and informatively, without over bearing politcal part bias.
