text: The way the Electoral College is set up no one can win by staying in their own comfort zone one might say. For instants in the campaign Romney was in, him being from the South and being well known there it did not give him an overwhelming advantage over his competing candidtes. As stated in source three paragraph five "No region (South, Northeast, ect.) has enough electoral voters to elect the president"(Posner). If the Electoral College didn't do this than yes, their could be a descrepence. The Electoral College does have its flaws but what or whom doesn't.
