Okay, we seem to have several folks in here who appear educated on the US Government's steps, policies, and procedures much more than I am. That being said, I'd like to get opinions on the Electoral College system of elections.
My question is this: "why do we still need the electoral college for presidential elections?". Why does a popular vote not suffice for ensuring that every, single vote counts? Not trying to stir the pot here, really just trying to understand.
Gracias!
