A lot of people say that the electoral college should be abolished, because it ultimately fails at its attempt to "recognize the little guys".
They're arguement is that if a small group of people gets a candidate 30 percent of the vote, and the rest goes for Candidate B then ever single vote goes for candidate B. Or if Candidate A got 49.99 percent of the votes, and Candidate B got 51.01 percent of the votes, all votes go to B. Even if its a high number like 50, all of them go for B.
I haven't heard a really good counter arguement. So, someone please try to convince me that we should not abolish the electoral college.
