I want it gone. It was useful in the time where communication could take months, but it is no longer useful. It alters our votes and can sway elections as a result (Bush vs Gore for instance). Because of where I live, my vote NEVER matters. Our elections should be strictly popularity votes, to lessen the possibility of rigged elections.

  • For example: if you live in Wyoming (with a smaller population) compared to living in California (with a larger population) your vote means more if you live in Wyoming.

  • Precisely, but that is not all. Who you vote for in relation to those around matter as well. If we take the 2008 election. I voted for Obama, but 93% of the district voted for McCain. Thus, the electoral delegate for our area voted for McCain, but the 7% that voted for Obama had our votes literally tossed by the wayside. I don't think it truly represents the people anymore and has become a thing of corruption in this day and age. They redraw voting districts as they please in a way that might benefit one party over another. That is not a good voting system.
