Exactly. It was also there to ensure that the minorities would not be over run by the majority. Yet, here we are... Migrants, fuck off! Trans, gay, women, non Christians, and more... Fuck off too! Here we are. The electoral college is a voting rights sham. I much rather get my one vote counted live on a big online counting board that everyone can see as it happens. Voting should be as easy as upvoting here on fedi. And we should have the right to change our mind so we can quick he rid of problems... Elected Trump by mistake? Down vote. No need to protest, down vote is everything. No need for reelection campaigns or polling. Wanna poll? Look at the vote. Just like looking at a Dow Jones ticker we would look at the vote.
