text: Voters dont vote for the President. They vote for the slate of electors. Electors are and can be anyone that deosn't hold a postion in a public office. Now we the people dont pick the electors in the first place. Depending on the state, sometimes the state party's central committee choose, sometimes the presidential candidates choose them self. Voters can sometimes contorl whom their electors vote for, but not all the time. Sometimes the voters get confused about the electors and they go off voting for the wrong candidate. To me that's un-fair to the voter because they are not voting for the presidant but for an a elector that can mess up and vote for the wrong candidate.
