"It is odd indeed that in 2000, a nation devoted to spreading democracy throughout the world gave power to a man who received 543,895 fewer votes than his opponent." -E.J. Dionne Jr.
I have long maintained that the Electoral College is an antiquated notion that should be eliminated in favor of a popular vote system. The person with the most votes wins the office.
In his op-ed column, E.J. Dionne Jr spells out quite an argument for the abolishment of the Electoral College.
