   I see your point. The EC has draw backs too. Whichever party carries a 
   state immediatly invalidates the other parties votes. If your party didn't
   win the state, you wasted your time voting. It also discourages the 
   politicians from campaigning well enough for the electorate to get a good
   grasp of what their about unless your in California,Florida,Ohio or New 
   York. If you live in one of those states you probably get sick of hearing 
   them. It just seems that a popular vote might be a tool to encourage 
   people to get out and vote. Maybe not.
