How could this document help support abolishing or keeping the Electoral Collage? 329375 https://padlet.com/341562/zbbh4zhnsts1/wish/302790143 This document could help abolish the Electoral College because the map demonstrates how unequal the system is. This can cause a significant fluctuation. For instance California has 55 Electors while Maine has 4. On the other hand, this map can benefit the Electoral College because it shows how, in a way, the system is fair. The more populous a state is the more electoral votes it has. That way one country wont overpower others.]]> 2018-11-09 22:22:45 UTC https://padlet.com/341562/zbbh4zhnsts1/wish/302790143 5.
