The insanity and stupidity of the undemocratic Electoral College explained

Your vote doesn't count less than others. It's one person, one vote for both the senate and the house. Our government was built to have checks and balances. It's not a pure democracy nor is it a pure oligarchy. That was for a reason. We need a check on mob rule otherwise the majority decides everything at the expense of the minority.

It was enacted because the Founders acknowledged pure mob rule is a shitty way for a country to function.

it is also one person, one vote for President. Like they do for the Senate and the House, the STATES vote and tell their electors who should be President. The States do that by one person one vote. Winner take all for the State (except Maine and Nebraska that allocate by House district)

There are no such laws. Nobody has won any actual electoral votes until December.

winner takes all laws may change that.....doesn't California law say that all their electoral votes go to whoever has gotten sufficient electoral votes to secure the presidency?.........
 
If the EC cost Republicans an election, it would have been immediately eliminated. It stays because it puts the losing Repub in the WhiteHouse.

The president is chosen by the Electoral College. It's been the law since the Constitution was ratified on June 21, 1788. Get over it.

Lefties seem to forget that the EC is nothing new, and that it was not just put in place to put Trump into office. Lefties are simply messed up in the head after being blindsided by the lefty media in 2016. The Trump train was coming in fast, air horns blowing, but all lefties could hear was the lefty media claiming that Hillary was sure to win. Lefties were blindsided, and it hurts them to this day. That is why they are whining about the EC.

Are you saying Republican presidents couldn't be elected without the electoral college?

Well, I AM SAYING IT LOUD AND CLEAR!

That is the only reason why we've had the last two Republican presidents.

All of our Democrat presidents did it the real and honest way- By winning the POPULAR VOTE!

Nope. Presidents are not elected by popular vote.
