text: The Electoral College is a non-democratic method of voting because voters only get to vote for a slate of electors, not the president of their choice. Although it is rare for an elector to vote for the president that is not the first choice of of the people who elected him, it has happened. The Electoral College is also unfair because in the system, the "winner takes all". This is unfair because nominees only spend their time campaigning in the "swing states" that will get them the most votes. In these states, some voters know they have no chance of getting the president they wish to elect if the majority of the state chooses to elect the other candidate.
