text: I also belive it isn't fair to smaller states. Electoral College is based on your states population. You have small states like Alaska and Hawii who only have 3 or 4 electoral votes and other larger states like Texas and Florida who have 29 or 38 Electoral votes. The candidates running for president go to large states more so than small states, because they know that if they persuade the big states the will the election. "The Electoral College may turn off potentail voters for a canidate who has no hope of carrying their state."
