      That's EXACTLY what it does - if you as candidate win the popular vote in the state, why shouldn't you get all of the electoral votes? There's only a couple of states where this doesn't happen - that's up to their state.

      Why shouldn’t you get all of the Electoral Votes? Well we could start at the 14th, 15th, and 19th Amendments as well as the Voting Rights Acts that guaranteed minorities and women will be guaranteed a right to vote which Winner Take All unConstitutionally violates.

      Or you could consider the basic principle that the vote is being cast by the voter for a National Position meaning their portion of the Electoral College Vote should also be counted Nationally instead of at a State Level.

      Or you could look at how since 1872 Winner Take All EC only counts an average of 54.58% of voters votes in the final tally whereas a weighted round by round Method counts 100% of voters votes initially and since 1872 would’ve counted an average of 96.45% of voters votes in final

      Or you could just suppress almost 63 million votes like they did in 2016 and have a President who doesn’t represent the will of the people. Or you could say why do rural voters in rural states have more of a say than the urban voters.

      If you take out the LA county vote, Trump wins the popular vote by a LOT. Or, if you take out the NYC vote, Trump wins popular by a LOT. Why should one (1) city or one (1) county control who gets elected president?

      I thinking letting everyone vote is the correct approach.

      And everyone does vote - for their electoral college representatives. This is why we live in a Republic.

      The Electoral College is a very carefully considered structure the Framers of the Constitution set up to balance the competing interests of large and small states all the while ensuring one person, one vote.
