Recently, two states have come out looking to change our electoral college system of elections: Colorado and Washington.
This concern me very much. Already, our country has stripped the states dramatically of their power in the ferderal government system. Our founders thought states rights to be paramount in our union; much more so than federal power. As proof, our country is named, "The United States of America."
Attempting to change our electoral system to a popular vote system will nearly guarantee that which our founders feared most: tyranny by the majority.
Consider this when thinking out the debate.
