B is for Governor candidate Jim Weir

just to go back to the 2nd or so post by CJ... actually most states DO
have constitutional requirements that the electors do not change their
vote once its declared before the election (in other words, yes they
do have to respect the will of the people). Second, I used to think
the electoral college was crap too, until I realized the beauty of the
system. I could write pages, but watered down, its meant to give more
clout to geopolitical minorities. Its meant to be a restraint on the
"tyranny of the majority" (which has been declared by many scholars as
the biggest threat to american democracy). Smaller states are given
(because of the 2 senator per state thing) more electors per
population.
Ok Im done now ill spare you all
