text: I believe that the idea of a popular vote to elect the president is a way better idea than Electoral College. In Electoral college your vote actually goes to the electors of the canidates, and they get to elect the president. So in a way people don't really get who they vote for. " When you vote for your candidate you are actually voting for your candidates electors ", proof there to tell you the president you want is not really who you're voting for. " Over 60 percent of voters would prefer a direct election like we have now " direct evidence that shows more people want a direct vote so they arn't being lied to, get worried or even angry. The winner-take-all system really had an effect on the people in the past due the way some states could never see the candidates so they knew that they had no chance of winning. Now Electoral College may be unfair and outdated but some people still support it and like the ways of it.
