The electoral college is what keeps the massive population imbalance (on the coasts, mainly) from overruling the vast expanse of the US that isn’t on the coasts.
Thats not why it was created. It was created because the people can’t be trusted to vote for a president.
Well, actually, probably the biggest reason for the electoral college was because some states had far fewer people they permitted to vote (slavery being a major factor in that) and thus the electoral college was a way to let those states keep the power based on their population but without having to actually let all the people vote.
So Lets use last election for example; everyone could have voted for trump but if the college is in a mood they could vote in trump anyway.
There is nothing stopping that from happening in law, its just not wise to do that or the recent riots would be nothing in comparison.
Actually, a good number of states do have laws requiring people to vote for who they have pledged, and the SCOTUS recently weighed in and said such laws are constitutional (unanimously, at that–though Clarence Thomas, as is his wont, said that the rest of the justices reached the right conclusion but through the wrong rationale). Not all states have such laws, though.
 
That’s like bragging that you outscored your opponent but still lost the World Series 4 games to 3. It didn’t matter before the election, and is continued sour grapes afterwards. We are a constitutional republic, made up of diverse interests among 50 states. The Senate was created to give states equal weight in national matters. Doing away with the electoral college will simply allow candidates to target 8 or so states and ignore the rest of the country. The rest of the country has interests that need to be addressed and are different than simply the major urban centers.
And that’s different from our current system under the electoral college… how, exactly?
 
When I lived in Wyoming, the population often had the most defeatist attitude towards elections. No one stumps there. No one cares if anyone there votes. Our electoral votes were as meaningless as our actual votes. We were a pimple on the rear end of a pig and knew it!

But, we did have two senators and for Wyoming, that was extremely important in who we sent!
 
Exactly this. Also, although I am not Catholic, I do believe that this election is crucial as I strongly believe that conservative Christians will lose their religious freedoms if Biden wins and the DEms keep the House and take the Senate. Just ask the Little Sisters of the Poor and Masterpiece Cakes.
We could see conservative churches lose their tax exempt status and parochial schools close if they refuse to hire practicing homosexuals or those in a same sex union.

I believe you are 100% correct. And if the Catholic Church is overwhelmed by an anti-religious state, the other churches will be swamped in its wake.

I consider Julian Assange a villain in many ways, but he did Catholics a favor by exposing what the Dem party leadership really thinks about Catholicism and that the party is willing to take an active role in subverting it.
 
My response would take way too long.
But I will be voting for Trump in person. Threw out the mail in ballot.
 
How would anyone know if a person voted for a communist unless one proclaimed it publically?
 
Apparently Camela Harris is Biden’s choice for VP which given his situation is huge
She is the same person who a AG of California used every tactic in the world to silence project Veritas on Planned Parenthood selling baby parts
No Catholic could possibly vote for the Neo Communist Party dihguised as the old Democratic Party
There coming for us and that flawed human called Donald Trump is the only thing that stands in there way
The Democrstic Party does not believe in the US Constitution only an very naive person could be taken in.
The First Amendment is gone with a Biden Election. That’s Assembly , Religion , and Free Speech
This election is the most clearly good vs evil in history
 
Needless to say, we’re extremely fortunate that President Trump is President during this pandemic, as he took it seriously way before the Democrats and their media took the pandemic seriously:


And after Trump banned foreigners’ travel from China, Trump banned travel of foreigners from Europe.
Joe Biden tweeted just one day after the travel ban went into effect, “We are in the midst of a crisis with the coronavirus. We need to lead the way with science — not Donald Trump’s record of hysteria, xenophobia, and fear-mongering.”

voxdotcom tweeted on January 31, 2020: "Is this going to be a deadly pandemic? No.


Wanting to protect the public from a pandemic was racist. Their “wokeness” is more important than saving lives.

President Trump acted quickly in an effort to block the coronavirus by declaring a January 31st travel ban on foreigners from China. In true Leftist form, the Left was more concerned about virtue signaling and attacking President Trump than Leftists were concerned about saving lives.

Preliminary investigations conducted by the Chinese authorities have found no clear evidence of human-to-human transmission of the novel #coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in #Wuhan, #China.
President Trump heroically saved incompetent Governors (who were woefully unprepared for a pandemic with too few ventilators, hospital beds, etc.) and the U.S. is one of few countries that counts anyone who happens to have COVID at the time of death (even motorcycle accident) as a COVID death. And Trump has had to put up with Governors’ nursing home policies:


Calls to protect the elderly went unheeded by Democratic Governors Cuomo, Whitmer, Wolf, and Newsom.
They appear to have willfully endangered those most at risk by forcing nursing homes to admit coronavirus patients.
USA Today noted: “New Jersey had 3,200 residents of long-term care homes die due to complications from the virus, about 40% of the statewide total”.
In New York, over 5,000 nursing home dwellers died on Governor Andrew Cuomo’s watch. That’s a quarter of the state’s deaths.
In Pennsylvania, Governor Tom Wolfe (D) approved nursing homes’ mandatory acceptance of previous virus patients from hospitals, and “about 65% of coronavirus deaths were nursing-home residents.

Wait a minute. The only people who went to jail were trump cronies.

You might think the others need to be in jail but they are not. An who is in charge of the justice system.

Very comical when I hear statements which ignore reality.
 
An who is in charge of the justice system.
I realize you’re trying to speak rhetorically, but there isn’t anyone “in charge of the justice system.” The judiciary is an independent branch of government.

You may choose to think something I wrote “ignores reality.” There is in fact nothing “comical” about what was in fact a coup attempt - in fact, it’s the furthest thing from comical; it’s terrifying what people like Page and Strzok did. It’s also terrifying that people don’t recognize it.

It falls under the executive branch. Headed by the attorney general. Very simple.

concerned Congress passed the Act to Establish the Department of Justice (ch. 150, 16 Stat. 162), creating “an executive department of the government of the United States” with the Attorney General as its head.
 
The AG is the chief attorney for the United States - but the AG is not “in charge of the justice system.” You’re suggesting the AG is “in charge of” courts, which isn’t the case.

Given your background I’d expect greater precision.
