I think the current system is out dated and needs fixed. We no longer rely on horses to travel across the country and it no longer takes months to get from one side to the other. Each person should have each vote count and matter as one vote.

@Rexion the practice made sense for the time period that made it.
It's just now a days I think it leaves it open to political corruption and takes away the value of each person's votes.
In some states the district's were purposely recreated in order to lessen the impact of majority democratic voters.
The system in place doesn't give the every vote counts and every vote matters. Because they don't.
So whoever is in positions of power can basically cherry pick voting lines in order to make the majority be the majority and spread out the minority so they can't have a voice.

As a non US citizen I don't like their system much.
Whoever gets the most votes from individual voters should win.
This electoral college thing seems bonkers to me.
In my opinion clinton should have won as she got more individual votes.
Got to say I'm not a fan of either but I do think clinton is the best of the two with regards to international diplomacy...I can't see her running her mouth on twitter.
