I don't like the electoral college either. I prefer a majority vote, same as with all elections. That said, the electoral college isn't going away any time soon, so you have to play the game the way it is laid out. That means that the election will inevitably be played out in a handful of states, and you'd better focus your energy on those states to win. It's unfortunate, because people that live in states where the outcome is pretty well decided might not feel their vote counted for much, or they might not vote at all. That of course would be a huge mistake, as there are many other candidates to choose and issues to decide. Should be one person...one vote. This provincial voting of the eighteenth century where people really didn't move about much makes no sense in a nation that moves on average every 2 years. So one year you vote in Ohio, the next year you vote in Florida. We need to modernize the way we elect the president for sure. Orca
