Reality is that the electoral college is based on how many representatives you have in Congress, so it is redundant, it is based on how many people live in a region ... I just think its time has passed a lone time ago!!!
I didn't want Hillary to win nor Trump, but I knew it was going to be one of them ... both make me unhappy ... I had ballot questions and school board as well on election day, so I HAD to vote and as I stated before I was NOT voting for either of them!!!
