ELECTORAL COLLEGE

My answer to this question is no, I do not believe that this is a good way to elect a president because of a couple of reasons. The first reason is that it is not fair to the people. If people, for example, George W Bush vs. Al Gore, if people want Al Gore, but more than half of the people vote for George, then George will win. The next reason is that people want to have a say in their vote. They do not get that with the electoral college. They just tell whoever runs their state and then the state will tell what they voted. If a person gets 270 Electoral college votes, they win. But if all the people have say in who they are voting for, then it will be more fair towards the people.
