text: Some people may thing that the Electoral College sould be done away with so that the president can be dessided by popular votes.  If this were to happen then there would be the chance to have run-off elections, since there would be no clear winner if the votes were very close.  There would be the complete unbalance from state to state, Rhode Island would have little to no effect on the election, where as with the Electoral College it could be the state to choose the winner.
