text: The electoral college consists of 538 electors a majority of 270 electors votes are required and is reqiured to elect the president(paragraph 3 sentance 1). So i belive that electoral college should be at most the most effecient way of electing a president because they have to persude the electorates to be on their side in order to get elected. Wich is much harder to do that pursudeing the people there for giving us a good honest president than one that will lie or try to hurt the public in any way because, i belive if their are officials going to vote for our nations president they will be much more careful of their decision,putting our nation in better hands.
