Questionmarktarius 09/14/17 2:46:11 PM #46:	Antifar posted... Questionmarktarius posted... Just keep in mind that all you'll accomplish is shifting "red vs blue" to "urban vs everyone else". The problem is not that the EC creates divides, any electoral system must. The problem is that it doesn't weight votes equally. Because, as we all know, Wyoming has been a swing state in more than zero elections. The unspoken plan behind abolishing the electoral process is to go ahead and let California and New York dictate the rest of the nation. The part that's missed, is that disenfranchised republican voters in those states would no longer be trampled into irrelevance. As is, 100% of California's votes go to the democratic candidate, give or take 80 and 84. Abolish the electoral college, and maybe 70% of California's votes will continue to do so, probably less. <cite>Questionmarktarius posted [p:886597858] in Hillary Cl...
