The Electoral College needs to go. Popular vote should rule, this system is just so ridiculous. The overall vote is split, yet the final score is 303 to 203. It makes no sense, and it should've been changed after the 2000 election when the winner received less votes than the loser. This just gives credence to those saying that your vote doesn't really count. It does count, just not in a fair, rational, or meaningful way.

I second that considering I have high distaste for the Electoral College.

Yeah i can't believe how the number of votes vary by state. Places like Montana and the dakotas have just 3 votes compared to Texas, 39 votes and California, 55 votes, not fair at all. The popular vote is the only thing that should replace the electoral college
