text: In source 2, it says that 60 percent of voters would prefer a direct election to the kind we have now. That is more than half the amount of voters in the country! It even states "In the same vein, faithless electors have occasionally refused to vote for their party's canidate and cast a deciding vote for whomever they please." meaning that sometimes the electors would not always have the same idea in mind as the people have. To me that is a real bummer especially for the people in the state with those kinds of electors.
