text: The Electoral College is unfair to it's voters. If the candidate has more electoral votes than popular votes then they have a higher chance of winning. "Al Gore won the popular vote but lost the presidency, over 60 percent of voters would prewfer a direct election to the kind we have now" (Plumer, Paragraph 9). The president is the leader of the United States and if most of our country votes on a candidate they think suites the best but the other candidate wins, that would make many voters dissapointed. "Because of the winner-take-all system in each state, candidates don't spend time in states they know they have no chance of winning" (Plumer, Paragraph 13). Every vote counts, and the candidate that gets the most popular votes deserves the win.
