In the US we have the Electoral College. It's a piece of legislature designed when the vote was actually transported between states because there was no telephone or internet. Well, now we have telephones and the internet, but we still have the Electoral College. It needs to be removed, as it causes certain states to become more important than others in the Presidential race, it also makes 3rd party elections nearly impossible. It negatively affects people of all political opinions, and there is zero upside anymore.

I've gone ahead and started a petition to have it removed, but I need to hit 25,000 votes in less than a month! If you agree with me and are a US citizen, please, sign on board, share this link with anyone and everyone, and lets make miracles happen. This is not something that will weaken the country, it will help us grow, and it will give us a more accurate representation of the Presidential vote... and to top it off, it might just mean you no longer have to vote for the guy you like less!
