text: The first reason we should get rid of the Electoral College is the system is outdated and unfair. "Under the electoral college system, voters vote not for the president, but for a slate of electors, who in turn elect the president..."(Plumer, 10). What this means is the electoral college is non-democratic in the fact that the people don't choose their leader, the electors do based on the peoples choice but in the end its all up to them. Also, a state with more electors will have a bigger impact on the choice than one with less so it doesn't really come down to the peoples' choice, it comes down to what state you live in. Another argument is "Because of the winner-take-all system in each state, candidates don't spend time in states they know they have no chance of winning, focusing only on the tight races in the 'swing' states..."(Plumer, 13).                                            If you've ever had a tough question then you would know there not easily solved. Most people go to others for advice, but is having advice from one person really enough to make the right choice?
