text: I claim that it should stay the same because of these reason, Certainty of outcome , in 2000 it was possible that the dispute over the outcome if an Electoral College vote and around the 2012's the election , obama received a 61.7 percent of the electoral vote compared to oly 51.3 percent and that was alot. also the college had to restores some of the weight in the political blance that large states lose by  virtue of the mal apportionment, wich the senate decreed in the consitution. There wasa method that the Elecotral college use and that was that to select the president that will turn off the potential voters for a candidate,there are five reasons for retaining the electoral collega despite its lack of democratic pedigree.
