Majority of Americans continue to favor moving away from Electoral College
cross-posted from: https://kbin.social/m/[email protected] [/c/[email protected]]/t/488620 [https://kbin.social/m/[email protected]/t/488620] > 65% of U.S. adults say the way the president is elected should be changed so that the winner of the popular vote nationwide wins the presidency.
The whole point is that the electoral college is a bad way of determining agreement.
All votes should be equal.
But it isn’t equitable because politicians only ever pay attention to swing states.
And people should be represented equally. The location of a citizen shouldn’t effect the strength of their voice.
If it was population based, they’d only pay attention to large populations.
Don’t get me wrong, I continue not to care.
I love how conservatives do not care about any topic yet they spend their precious time writing tons of comments on topics they definitely do not care about…
It’s nice to see who the real snowflakes are from time to time :D
Then maybe it’s time you accept who you really are and throw your centrist mask.
Anyone preferring the Electoral College to a direct democratic vote for the president election is a downright conservative in my eyes as he (or she) prefer to keep things as they are (conserve) even if these things are proven to be worst than an already existing alternative.
Glad I could show you your true colours, I hope you’ll be more honest with yourself and everybody around you from now on. Even if I doubt it, since you are a conservative and conservatives flee from truth as vamiprea flee the sunlight.
And yet, where presented with an answer explaining you that democracy = all votes have the same value (which is the literal definition of democracy ( you decided to answer “no thanks” and proceeded to keep your wrong line of thinking.
That’s not lazy thinking, that’s no thinking at all. Just like a conservative would do.
