text: United States because it's easier to read when voting. In source one, by the Office of the Federal Register, it states that "The Electoral College consists of 538 electors. A majority of 270 electoral votes is required to elect the President". This shows that when all the votes are tallyed up theirs no need to go through so much problem, when their's basically a rubric to go over the electors and the electoral votes. For example, if this wasn't invented, we would have our own people just sit their on long day and nights. Without any sleep and count all those votes. This could lead to alot of miscounts. This is why I believe we should keep the Electoral College for the presidnet of the United States.
