As someone from a rural state , I think it ' s ridiculous that we are catering to the rules states . The president represents America as a whole , and so who the majority of Americans vote should be the winner . We have the Congress for a reason , but so few people vote for them and expect a figurehead to do all their work . The House of Representatives is there to represent each area , and the Senate is there to represent the state itself . It ' s entitled . And every conversation had with people about the electoral college since had told me how entitled the people around me feel . <| sep |> I would download so much you don ' t even wanna know . Could you imagine how lit the torrent downloading would be if everyone had the same situation ?
