The Electoral College Should Be Abolished

The founders protect individual rights to the country's founding documents. The US Constitution is such a document. In particular, this protection can protect Americans with few views and people who support the majority. For example, the first amendment protects the right to freedom of expression to ensure that people with disadvantaged opinions have freedom to express them, as well as those who tend to favor majority. Therefore, the US Constitution is aimed at protecting the individual rights of Americans from tyranny and the vast majority.

Electoral colleges should be abolished. Currently, 60-80% of the countries living in an uncompetitive country are systematically deprived of the presidential election right. The minority can not say and the majority can not affect the results of other countries. It is difficult to accurately quantify the decline in voter turnout rate in non-competitive situations, but this may be important. Even in intense competition, I am having a tragic time. Every four years, states such as Ohio and Florida are attacked with political advertisements and media, and after the election they become ghost towns. The electoral college was unfair for all Americans and disqualified the candidates and they won the victory in popularity vote, but they lost almost no swing condition.

As in each election season, especially in the constituency where the candidate won the election but never won the popular election, there is a talk about whether to abolish the university that participated in the election and replace it with a mass vote increasing. At first glance it makes sense that someone must win more than 50% of the votes in order to win. I have not argued that one method is fair than the other, but the election college has the view that your vote actually created a situation more important than a massive mass vote You should be careful.

From the perspective of presidential election, a lot of people insisted that electoral colleges should be abolished - mainly because Clinton won the votes of the people but lost most of the cards in the cards. Goa won the vote of the people, but it was also related to the 2000 election that lost votes in Bush 's election. Clinton won the public's vote, but if our election system is based on popularity it is important to consider that each candidate will completely change their campaign strategy. For example, playing cards could not spend most of their time on campaigns in big red states like Texas and small swinging states like New Hampshire.
