text: Even though other situations like in 2012 when obama won the election he recived a 61% of the electoral college's votes while the popular votes he recived was 51% a 10% difference, even though he still would've won it would've been more fair to let the popular votes decide. Some say its best to have a bias voter choose because they wont choose someone based on what everyone else's opinion is, like how the south favored romney over obama but to me that could be bad beacause what if who we choose actually has good ideas the college wouldve just go for the other guy.
