why have actual electors if they were "faceless hacks"? just allot the votes

And the probity of the electors was certainly of concern. Main question was to keep exec free of lege horsetrading and factional meddling.

Your piece on the EC overlooks the idea of political parties and voters having real options beyond Dem and Rep.
