I personally endorse any candidate who would abolish the electoral college... let the popular vote actually count in this futuristic digital habitrail we live in.

the electoral college protects small states from being overrun by big states.
the u.s. government is a republic, not a direct democracy.
you wanna do away with the electoral college, you gotta wipe out 231 years of U.S. history AND remake the constitution.
