Rate the following argument fragment on its writing, argument, and language skills:
Evidence: The Electoral college requires a presidential candidate to have a trans-regional appeal. If you are a regional favorite, as Romney was in the South, there is no need to campaign big in those states becuase no region has enough electoral votes to elect president. Therefore, Romney gains no electoral votes by increasing his popularity in states he knows he will win. It can be argued that the Electoral College method of selecting the president may turn off potential voters for a candidate who has no hope of carrying their state but, have a less incentive to pay attention to the campaign than they would have if the president were picked by popular vote. Voters in presidential elections are people who want to express a polital preference rather than people who think that a single vote may decide an election.
