It's still not clear to me the need to elect someone to represent a state in a presidential lection. Couldn't they just count each state votes and then ad them up? (sure, it would take days at the time, but I don't think that would be too inconvenient).

Anyway, we're in the 21st century, surely te reasoning behind that system is outdated?

radioflyertoo, basically, you're talking about 1st and 2nd class citizens, ones whose votes should really cout and others that don't. I understand the reasoning: how many times did I think how certain people shouldn't be able to vote and how I have to suffer certain outcomes voted by fools... But I'm more afraid about that liberty control.

I mean, a whole state can vote A and it's representative could vote B? Am I the only one that thinks that's outrageous? It's so much easier to corrupt a single representative than fool a whole state, I would guess!
