Kind of. I feel like it would be more fair to just hold a popular vote, and that would determine who our next president would be. On the other hand, a place like California, with 55 million people would have much more power than Montana, with 1 million people.

1) I tried to go after the states that had the most representatives so I would get more votes.

2) I think it is the easiest and fairest way to  elect a president because it makes the most sense.

3) People vote for a candidate and the candidate with the most votes gets the states vote.

(1)I think it is a fair way to decide on a president.
(2)My strategy was to claim the states with more electoral votes first.
(3)People vote for candidates and the person with the most votes from each state gets the electoral college votes.

My strategy was claiming the bigger states first (by electoral votes) and then going down the line for the amount of electoral votes each state has.

I think that the electoral college is fair and makes sense 90% of the time, but when electors vote against the wishes of the people who voted them in, it gets a bit complicated. You could try to make it a law that the electors say what the people elected them to say, but people could make the argument that the people voted that person in and they have to deal with the consequences.

I believe that the electoral college is an efficient system much of the time, but sometimes a candidate will win by a lot with the votes and not with the electoral college votes. I think that this is a flaw in the system because if that candidate won the popular vote, I believe that they should win the election because the opinion of the people chose them to be the president. I believe that the electoral college is beneficial for the smaller states so that they have more of an impact on the election, but I believe that not having the electoral college would be in the country's best interest. I think this because if the popular vote comes up with a winner of the election, that candidate is the preference of the majority of people. The electoral college also makes for extra counting of votes because you already have to count the popular votes, not even just the electoral votes.
