Make three logical and detailed agruments to KEEP the Electoral College. Make sure that your arguments are logical and well thought out....
- The Electoral College protects the interests of the rural communities and smaller States. It makes sure that a candidate who has campeigned best based on the geography of the country, makes it to the highest offices in the country.
- In every election process there is the chance of needing a recount and with the electorol college it is swift and focuseson the state BUT with the popular vote there would be douzens of hundreds counties across the board that would need a recount.
- It avoids the possibility of a recount of the entire nation.
- 2000 presidency election- the fiasco in Florida was easily recounted because of it was only one state imagine recounting the whole countries votes!
- Presidents have to campeign wide and far! They can not just focus on the big states with the electoral college. They need to campeign to all states because the next president would need to win the majority of the electoral college.
- everybodies vote countes
- candidates go to every corner of the battleground states and many people get the opportunity to meet and question them
- Less campaign money is required (focusing on a handful of states)
