Carolyn Coller,
A free country where the person who gets the least votes wins the election? The Electoral College is undemocratic and undermines the doctrine of one man one vote, by giving small states a greater voice in determining the president than large states.

For example, Wyoming has a population of 586,107 and 3 electoral votes. That's one EV for every 195,369 people. Neighboring Colorado has a population of 5,456,574, and 9 EVs. That's one EV for every 606,286 people. Why should Wyoming votes count three times more than Colorado? 

Maybe we should adopt this for statewide elections in Alaska. Make Bush Alaska votes count three times more than urban Alaska. Would that be fair? Otherwise urban areas dominate and rural communities simply do not have a vote that counts, according to your logic.
