    My vote should matter more than some incumbent I may or may not have voted for!

    Why are the 538 electoral voters more important than the rest of us? Why does my vote not count?! 538 people decide who's president of our country? Insanity

    What happened to majority wins? This is an outdated system that no one understands. Every vote is suppose to count, but it really doesn't. Time to change. Past time. I am so disappointed in my state, my country, and my gender. A sad time for America. This is what happens when people are too lazy to vote.

    We dont need weighted average voting in this modern day, and the country would be better off with more than two political parties.

    As President-Elect Trump said in 2012 -- the electoral college is a "disaster for democracy" and it is. Our presidents should be elected with one person, one vote.

    This is a ridiculous system that insults the intelligence of voters and makes them feel as though there is no point. We knew this when Gore lost the electoral vote but clearly won the popular vote and here we go again. This time with a Fascist.

    I am an intelligent american citizen who takes my duty to vote very seriously and make sure to keep abreast of the politics and the politicians involved in them so I am doing my job in the best interest of my childrens future and the future of this country. Obviously the electoral college is not only outdated but an insult to the rights and abilities of every american. WE THE PEOPLE should be selecting the president NOT just suggesting someone for these people to vote for for us. If a president wins the "popular vote" that means the american people have exercised their right & responsibility to vote and chosen their president. Its called REAL democracy. ABOLISH THIS OUTDATED NONSENSE IMMEDIATELY & GET OUR TRUE PRESIDENT(S) IN OFFICE WHEN WE VOTE THEM THERE>

    The electoral college is antiquated. We the people should be able to have the right to have our votes count! It's simple and MUST be done now!

    Holding the elections in the presence of the electoral college does not mean any thing. Because the vote of the mejority of the people is not being counted anyway. It's an outdated source of rigging the elections. Our leaders has to show leadership like our founding fathers and abolish this if not this is going to create a lot of problems in the future.
