    The United States of America is built on the principles of government based on the consent of the people. Because of this, citizens have the right to vote for their mayors, governors, judges and most importantly the president. As the leader of our country, the president should be a direct reflection of Americans. With that in mind, the current system of the Electoral College is not an accurate representation of everyone. Many elections, including that of Rutherford B. Hayes, Grover Cleveland and George W. Bush, have had a candidate with the presidency without winning the popular vote.…

    Electoral College: A Flawed System For generations, a man who holds more potential power than anyone else on this imposing earth has been ordained his power by a small group of 538. This system has been continually tarnished and contorted until it arranged itself to the system of today; a warped empty shell of good intentions gone wrong. It is of my opinion that the system we have today is fallacious and must be removed with great haste. Once an idea on a path paved with good intentions, at some point a fork in the road presented itself, on which the wrong lane was taken, leaving the presidential candidates to the mercy of a process gone awry. To most, it is a little known phenomenon that the genuine voters, the hardworking people of mainstream…

This election is an example of how the Electoral College diminishes the importance of the votes of the people. Most people know of the electoral college, they have read about it in their U.S. Government textbooks or have heard it mentioned in a political news broadcast, but some people are unclear on how much power the electoral college possesses; it is the electors who have the power to elect the President of the United States, not…
