text: I believe that the Electoral College should stay. I believe this because even though many people think of it as a horrible way to have presidential elections, it's probably more effective this way. When people first hear about the Electoral College, they automatically assume that they don't matter to the election, that everything is taken care of by the Electoral College, that if they didn't vote, nothing would change. Now if 1 or 2 people actually had this mentality, then it wouldn't matter, but it's not just 1 or 2 people, it's a pretty big amount of the American population.
