Does the all or nothing approach to the electoral college allow voters to be heard? Does it seem representative for only a few states to be focused on in a general election? Are the positions and issues addressed in presidential debates reflective of the those facing the country? Should the voting public be better informed of WHY the electoral college is necessary? Does the mathematical approach described in today's WSJ article seem right?
Republicans therefore are a lock or lead in 24 states for 206 electoral votes, and Democrats have or lead in 19 states for 247 electoral votes. That's why seven super-swing states with 85 electors will determine which party gets to the magic number of 270 electoral votes: Colorado (9), Florida (29), Iowa (6), Nevada (6), New Hampshire (4), Ohio (18) and Virginia (13).
