text: The Electoral College should not be kept in the system because. One, the electoral college are the people chosen by the candidate that are running for president and are made of House of Representatives and Senate. The electoral college votes for the president based on what the people from the state vote on. " Under the electoral college system, voters vote not for the president , but for a slate of electors, who in turn elect the president." so in other words you may vote for someone but it's all upon the electors to discide who wins the election. another thing that is wrong with the electoral college is we don't was vote for our electors. At the most basic level, the electoral college is unfair to the voters. becuse of the winner-take- all sytem in each state, candidates don't spend time in states they knjow they have no chance of winning, focusing only on the tight races in the "swing" states. Over 60 percent of voters would prefer a direct election to the kind of election we have now. the people believe that we should have the power to discide who we choose as our president not the electoral college.
