text: Throughout the years, it has become apparent that The Electoral college is a disaster. Considering all the mishaps that have already occured due to the system, would it be safe to allow it to continue?  "Back in 1960, segregrationists in the Louisiana legislature nearly succeded in replacing Deocratic electors who would oppose John F. Kennedy. (So that a popular vote for Kennedy would not have actually gone to Kennedy.)" This even being a possibility is more than enough. It is time for a change.
