I am not in favor of abolishing the electoral college. Part of the reason would be the effect it would have on politics in our country. Think of the way that campaigning would change. You would never see any candidate ever in the smaller states. You would only see the candidates in the large cities. It would drastically change the way things are done in the country.
It is funny too that a lot of people have changed their minds on the electoral college. Democrats were all in favor of the Electoral college. Republicans were opposed. That was when it was thought that Bush would get the most popular votes and Gore the most Electoral votes. It would be interesting if Gore's popular vote vanished and Bush won the popular vote if people's mind would change.
