text: I personally think that we should not have the Electoral College , because the citizens should be allowe to pick our president and vice prsident. It should be up to the people not the congress. According to paragraph three of source one , the Electoral College consist of five hundred and thirty-eight electors . A canidate has to earn two hundred and seventy of those votes . To me that is not right . Why spend time bringing these people in to vote when you have a whole state full of people who wants to have a voice in the matter.
