I see you ' re into namecalling . How ' d that go , this recent election ? <| sep |> 1 . Even so electoral college votes are weighted by state albeit unfairly . These rules were also set up ages ago by a much different society , do they even make sense anymore ? 2 . California and New York still wouldn ' t have all the power . And right wing voters in those states could actually have their regions represented by right wing reps rather then being blanked by left wing reps popular in urban centres . 3 . That is one counter example , but I doesn ' t change the fact the republicans won cause the had more heavily weighted voters behind them , not more voters . 4 . Sorry but change for the sake of change isn ' t much of an argument . Why would I change my vote just to shake things up if I don ' t have any problems with my current representation .
