text: Under the Electoral College system, voters vote for the electors that actually decide who the president will be. (Plumer, 10) The issue that gets faced to the voting citizens is they cant control whom their electors vote for. This can be an issue because of whats known as the disaster factor. (Plumer, 11). The most known disaster factor was the big election crisis of 2000. The 2000 campaign was not held very properly, infact seventeen states didnt see the canidates at all. People say that the Electoral College is unfair, outdated, and irrational but in all actuality it is the best way to vote for who will become president. Bob Dole made the comment "Abolish the Electoral College!" but if we had just a popular vote, without Congress having a say in the decisson, the process wouldnt be as organized.
