text: in favor of keeping the Electoral College. I wouldn't like to keep the Electoral Collage because under the electoral college system, voters vote not for the president, but for a slate of electors, who in turn elect the president.We are used to voting for the president and along with that president we would also have the counting of electoral votes, it's wrong. For example, If you lived in Texas, and wanted to vote for John Kerry, you'd vote for a slate of 34 Democratic electors pledged to Kerry. Who are the electors? They can be anyone not holding public office. Who pick the electors in the first place? It depends on the state. Sometimes state coventions, sometimes the state party's central committee, sometimes the presidential candidates themeselves.
