text: The electorial college avoids the problem of elections in which no candidate receives a majority of votes by the cast. for example when president obama and romney went against each other for president both of them had 51.3 percent so the electoral vote that change it all president obama got 61.3 percent electoral votes compared to 51.3 percent of the pouplar vote. This is the best way for people to know who really winning and won. I think its best for us to use the electoral vote. Its granteed to help with the prsident and the people to know who is really winning.
