text: The Elecotral College has many flaws, a major one being that voters don't actually vote for their president, they vote for electors, and the elctors are the ones who elect the president. You may ask yourself, "What's wrong with this? One way or another we're still choosing the candidate we want." While that is somewhat true, the system has many kinks that need to be fixed causing errors in the process. One example of this is the "winner takes all" rule.  An excerpt from "The Indefensible Electoral College" says "... the electoral college is unfair to voters. Becuase of the winner take all system in each state, candidiates don't spend time in states they know they have no chance of winning, focusing only on the tight races in the "swing" states". At a basic level, this means candidates will only focus on some states, and giving up on others. In fact, the same article also says "During the 2000 campaign 17 states didn't see the candidates at all..." The facts prove it it, the Electoral College is a flawed, and unfair system, and it needs to be dealt with.
