Question

Should the Electoral college be eliminated

Answer 1

If no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes, the Presidential election leaves the Electoral College process and moves to Congress.

Answer 2

I think yes, the electoral college should be eliminated because it doesn't give voice to the smaller states. It also can put people in office even if they had a lower popular vote. The electoral college was put into place to help those who weren't as educated and that isn't so much the case now. Having it be popular vote, more people would likely vote, because then their opinion would actually have an effect on the poll.
