The argument for electoral college is that it is to prevent a few urban concentrated population to dictate for the vast rural and suburban population. Some 75-85% of lands are rural and suburban. The fear was that the population concentration in NY city, LA, Philadelphia etc. will overtrump these 75-85% of USA districts.
This argument is wrong. Because the representation of these areas are done in the election of congress which is based on congressional district. There is no need to do this representation in Presidential election as well.
Another reason this electoral collage based presidency is wrong and unjust is that, it treats vote of an urban citizen less than that of a rural area. It violates the principle of equality when comes to the wight of the vote. Even though more people voted for Hillary or Gore, somehow those extra votes are null/void because they came from overly populated electoral districts. The vote of a urban citizen weighs less than that of a rural area.

Including HC in 2016 and Al Gore in 2000, it happened five times already in American history, that a candidate won by popular (individual) vote but lost the presidency because of the electoral college, which was originally created as a balancing measure to avoid mob rule.

Hi,
The Electoral College has outlasted its usefulness. It is part of the constitution, written when communication was by pony express. Voters currently living and voting in a "red" or "blue" state are disenfranchised, because their vote doesn't matter. Eliminating the electoral college means: no "swing" states getting all the attention and all the campaign stops and all the empty campaign promises. The electoral members are selected by the two main political parties, Republican and Democrat, disenfranchising all other voters, independent, Libertarian, etc. End it now.
That's why I signed a petition to The United States House of Representatives, The United States Senate, and President Barack Obama.
Will you sign this petition? Click here:
