how much taxpayer money do the failed schools consume before they fall ? <| sep |> Yeah I wasn ' t sure either , the hair threw me a bit too ! <| sep |> Not surprised he felt this way . This is the same site that thinks the Braves are in the bottom 5 of the league after the Dickey Colon signings and at the end of 2016 they estimated the Braves to be bottom 3 . <| sep |> So ? The whole point of the Electoral College was that it ' s NOT bound to the will of the people or the popular vote . Electors are supposed to vote their conscience to ensure that potential demagogues don ' t get elected to the presidency . I agree that it ' s a system that can easily be subverted , but no one disagrees that the Electoral College needs to go . The Republicans had no problem gerrymandering the election in the favor to do away with the popular vote , we shouldn ' t be embarrassed to ensure the Electoral College actually does their job .
