text: Initially, the Electoral College is not right at all. The electoral votes in the U.S. combined throughout all the states equals 538 votes. Popularity votes which are votes that have an advantage of the election are more than tens of thousands if not more. This is an example on how the Electoral College works. An example of this is in the source by "Reasons to keep our despised method of chooosing the President" it states, " Nixon in 1968 and Clinton in 1992 both had only 42 percent of the popularity vote but won through the electoral votes because they had bigger states voting for them making them win that election". This shows how the Electoral College is not right and should reverse the value of electoral and popularity voting(Poshner, 22).
