In this episode, I dive in and analyze the debate surrounding the Electoral College and its place in American elections. There has been a lot of controversy this century and the calls to get rid of it grow louder by the day. We'll take a look at the history of the Electoral College, the way Electors are chosen/who they are, the accuracy (or inaccuracy) of the Electoral College's attempt to reflect the population of the US, and then analyze two arguments, one in favor of keeping it, and one in favor of abolishing it.

I'll give my personal take on it as well, but please do your own research, as this topic is of utmost importance.
