[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We are a [b]constitutional [/b]democracy. Arguing about popular votes is meaningless in our form of democracy.[/quote] Because we are a [b]Republic[/b]. [/quote] Representative democracies, i.e. republics, can choose elected officials via popular vote. There is nothing about being a republic that requires an institution like the EC to exist. And the fact that in the last 20 years the previously unprecedented occurrence of a President winning EC while losing popular vote happened twice is an indication that something is very broken with our process. I promise you the Founders were not thinking that 70 votes in PA, WI, and MI should outweigh 3 million in NY and CA.[/quote]
