text: But Electoral College are not all bad. Electoral College consist of 538 electors, a majority of 270 electoral vote is required to elect the president(The Office of the Federal Register).. This is good because that is most of the electoral votes, so it shows that more people actually wanted that candidate. Their are also 3 electors per state which is could help when it comes to making a choice because they are 3 so their can't be a tie. But in the case of the Elctoral College system the bad outways the good.
