    This is why it makes zero sense when you see trump supporter being like, "omg!!!! trump won like 3000 counties!" Yeah, except that the majority of them have like 50 people in them lol.

    So a county with 50 people in it has as much of a say in an election as los angeles, which has 4 million. Seems legit. I dont care how you spin it, the EC is fine, it just needs to be updated to properly and FAIRLY reflect where the population has grown in this country.

    • Totally - amazed it hasn't been updated - surely there are people pushing for that? I have no idea (in UK).fadein11
    • The GOP would never let it happen in the states where they hold office, and re-districting is every ten years, last time in 2010.BuddhaHat
    • were the EC votes and district lines drawn more fairly, the GOP's power at state and federal level would be diminished. You know, 'cos of reality.BuddhaHat
    • It needs to be updated. But it exists so that small parts of the country aren't forgotten about. Trump came in there and sold them snake oil.err
