It's no secret why Republicans defend the idea, THEY are the ones who would lose. But is this idea based on logic and reason? Why SHOULD we care so much about North Dakota, after all? And as for my original question, is it fair to give your vote more value than mine because of where you live?
Why, Bush won the popular vote, so if we did away with the EC he still would have won? (not flame bait, just trying to figure out why you think the repubs have more to lose than the democrats).
Had the EC been previously abolished, the Dems feel that Gore would be in the WH. Therefore the complete situation in 04 may have been avoided.
