The Electoral College System. Adapted from a pamphlet published by the League of Women Voters Education Fund in 1980. Every four years, the Electoral College, a little known feature of our Constitution, enjoys a fleeting movement of fame.ut by 1836, almost every state was using a popular vote system. On election day, when voters in each state go to the polls, each one casts a ballot for the slate of presidential electors who are pledged to support the candidate the voter prefers.
Yes they count. Individual votes pick the electors who officially pick the President. If you don't vote, there aren't any electors. There are a few reasons why this was put into place, but the key point to understand is that our government is not a pure democracy; it is a republic.ust because the system needs a little work does not mean your vote does not count. Barely 40% of the people came out to vote in the last election. It is a right and to not exercise your right is not smart and that goes for all rights.
