-Caveat Lector- And are you going to whine for that same very long, long time? Is this the first time in history that a President was elected by a majority of the electoral vote, but not the popular? If you STILL do not understand the purpose and design of the Electoral College, and are STILL outraged that a huge mob of folks all jammed together in one area still did not prevail with their "block" voting, then we have very little common ground for a reasonable discussion. The Electoral College may seem unwieldy NOW, but there was a definite wise PURPOSE for its design and inclusion in our Constitution. Just like the "current wisdom" of the intellectuals and sheeple in 1913, who decided it ever so much more desirable to have "direct" election of Senators by the people, it seems clever now to abolish this so unwieldy and cumbersome Electoral College, not realizing that it was designed EXACTLY FOR SCENARIOS LIKE THIS ONE PAST.
