I was just saying

2020-10-17 15:08:28 UTC  

I worked at a place where it was just me and 2 other people really laid back all we did was walk around taking inventory

2020-10-17 15:08:41 UTC  

Jacc, we arent a direct democracy, the electoral college is there to still let the smaller states have a say in the election so that it is not mob rule, does your individual vote matter, in the grand scheme no, but if everyone votes the electoral college takes into account what the people are voting for in their districts.

2020-10-17 15:09:28 UTC  

Probably

2020-10-17 15:09:31 UTC  

The electoral college is the only way every state can have a say in who gets elected @sophiaaaa

2020-10-17 15:09:33 UTC  

removing the electoral college does not immediately make the government a direct democracy

2020-10-17 15:09:37 UTC  

That sounds awesome

2020-10-17 15:09:51 UTC  

Yes, but it would make it more mob rule

2020-10-17 15:09:55 UTC  

no it wouldn't

2020-10-17 15:09:58 UTC  

it literally wouldn't

2020-10-17 15:10:03 UTC  

Where the big cities have all the say

2020-10-17 15:10:09 UTC  

How wouldnt it

2020-10-17 15:10:12 UTC  

we're a democratic republic or a constitutional representative republic

2020-10-17 15:10:15 UTC  

but most of the districts r gerrymandered?

2020-10-17 15:10:15 UTC  

depending on who you ask

2020-10-17 15:10:23 UTC  

We are a constitutional republic

2020-10-17 15:10:27 UTC  

no matter how you try and spin it it won't become mob rule

2020-10-17 15:10:43 UTC  

isn't the point of voting that everyone has a vote

2020-10-17 15:11:00 UTC  

Then what will it become when thw major check on distribution of power for states its taken out

2020-10-17 15:11:03 UTC  

not to make it whoever has power can gerrymander the districts to keep powr

2020-10-17 15:11:40 UTC  

the electoral college may seek to give smaller states a bigger voice but it doesn't seem to do that in practice

2020-10-17 15:11:40 UTC  

Well gerrymandering is wrong, and doesnt happen nearly as much anymore i believe

2020-10-17 15:11:44 UTC  

Wut

2020-10-17 15:11:49 UTC  

How

2020-10-17 15:11:55 UTC
