I don't see how the Electoral College can give us fair representation, especially from some states with a population of 500,000 people or something.
Eh, I'm terrible at explaining these things, but I'll try. The higher populated states do get one or two more votes in the electorial college, but that's okay. It's better for an area to have a few more votes compared to some other, lowly populated states than it would be for the actual populations of each state to vote. The differences of votes by the tens isn't as overwhelming as votes by the thousands, millions, etc. Of course the states with millions of people would always win. But with the representation voting, the lower populated states have more of a chance.
