Cary9. I know well  the origins of the Electoral College. To know and think about such causes reason for objecting to it.  It's  commentary you call whining. The Electoral College has been wrong for many elections denying the principal of one man one vote. This discussion is about the Electoral College. You're off topic.  Each voter should be assured their  precious vote  cast counts equally with any other vote no matter the zip code.  It's the individual who votes and whose vote should count  equally with any other no matter the zip code.  Voters vote. State's do not vote. Parties don't vote. People vote. This is about individuals and it is about equal representation in the tally, nothing more. And it's none partisan. Electoral College should have disappeared with slavery, child labor, lynching and more.
