Biden only won 17% of the counties, thats is the lowest any president ever had.

here is a anylysis of the theoretical lowest number of counties needed to win... which would mean in theory you could become president with only winning 11, not percent but plain eleven counties in the whole USA and still end up being president. of course these numbers are driven to the max... but sure makes you love a voteing system based on 18th century circumstances... washington and his crew would be so mad that we still use this in modern times when we could do so much better.

but doubt the democrats will change it.. after all they won with 17% counties.. and the republicans love the electoral college... well not trump.. according to his tweets he hates the electoral college

if that is where the vast majority of the people live I don't seriously see a problem.

Land should not vote, only people should. It should not matter where you live ,your vote should have the same impact.

@PDXNative1986 t is a problem in that way that those 11 counties are in no way representive of the whole population and it shows how completely flawed a voting system from the 18th century is in the 21str century

@AngelofFail what? What are you saying? Are you implying that a majority is not a majority? WTF? The electoral college sets up the situation where a minority of the population determines who the president of the majority is! Too many times in the past 50 years, we have ended up with someone in the WH who LOST the popular vote but managed to win the college. Again, that resulted in the minority of the country determining the direction of the country over the desires over the majority.

While we are at it, the archaic senate rules allow one man, elected solely by citizens of his/her state to determine the fate of legislation passed in the "people's house," or presidential appointments regardless of what the others in the senate think, or citizens of the country might want! Is that even sane?
