Votes equal votes in elections.

I'm not for this change because it sounds like sour grapes.  If someone comes up with a good reason and its approved to change it later that's all well and good.

But a vote is a vote.

A yard is not a point.

More people wanted Clinton than Trump.  Trump just had enough people in the right states to win the EC.  That's the game.

But I can understand people saying she "won" the country wide vote.  You just can't change the rules after you lose.

A yard is not a point.

A vote is not an electoral vote.


Perhaps it's the school systems that are failing the country in this situation to proper teach how our system works to it's future voters. That or the process of raising children while giving everyone participation trophies for trying hard has set them up to not know how to handle a situation where they lose and get nothing.
