It's a federal republic

not a pure democracy

hence why she didn't win

see you forget were not a democracy

That doesn't mean we wan't change it

It does as the founding fathers quite smartly set it out

It works fine for me

Same here

but you can't say it wasn't fair and square

We aren't a pure democracy, but we're still democratic mostly

But we aren't pure democracy

so it's fair

yep

You have to think about it

What does not being a pure democracy have to do with changing the EC?

How is the EC changing?

Like removing it or fixing it

Because the founding fathers set up the EC

and it works fine

We would still be a federal republic

No we wouldn't

Yes, we would

As the federal republic goes

nope

You do realise with the EC

any elector can refuse to vote for the candidate

Anyways, most Americans wanting to abolish the EC doesn't mean anything

As America is not a democracy, for this reason precisely

and the EC is given by the founding fathers

"At its core, the literal meaning of the word republic when used to reference a form of government means: "a country that is governed by elected representatives and by an elected leader (such as a president) rather than by a king or queen"

Yes

The US would be governed by elected leaders

correct

and it is

And the president would still be elected

the president is elected

through the EC

which is a federal republoic

if you remove the EC you no longer have a federal republic

In a Federal Republic, the way the president is elected doesn't matter

As long as there are representatives (congress in this case) it would still be a federal republic
