On the other hand, after giving it some thought. I know many American people, some of them voted for Trump. These people are nothing like him. I have no bad experience with any American I know and hold no bad feelings towards the people or the country. Maybe the system isn’t working.
- theklub 7y agoRead up on the electoral college. Clinton got more votes...It doesn't work.
- DoreenMichele 7y agoThe electoral college exists precisely so that population alone isn't the determiner. So it actually does what it is, in fact, intended to do. It's designed that way so that bigger states with more people don't have cart blanche and smaller states with fewer people don't get just trampled underfoot. You can debate if it's really a good thing that we have a system in place to try to balance out such things, but asserting that the electoral college doesn't work because Trump won with fewer votes basically says "I don't actually understand the thing." It works exactly as it was designed to work.
- theklub 7y agoYes of course it does, but my opinion is it doesn't work to get the best and brightest mind into the white house...so in that sense it is broken. Thanks.
