Learn why electoral college exists
I think everyone should learn why the electoral college was put in place.
A pure majority does not represent everyone. Our country would be ruled by large cities with no voice from less-populace states. Please find out why our Founding Fathers decided to use this method.
Don't bash it until you understand it.
