text: Now back to what the downsides are of the electral college "The single best argument against the electoral college what we might call the dissaster factor." a part of Bradford Plumer's article "The Indefensible Electoral College: Why even the best laid defenses of the system are wrong." Even just in the name of that article explains everything that event he "best" type of system can be a dissaster, and the entire article cannot be quoted but hopefully with that one quote the point will get across to the people. Everyone should read some sourses before making an disision like this. Not just the people voting so that even the people not voting will fully understand why one disision is being made and whyone isnt being made. This one thing can affect the way electing president will be from now on to the future, unless they deside they want to change it again.
