Explain to me like I'm 5 why the Electoral College is necessary
Poast new message in this thread
Date: October 23rd, 2021 9:11 AM Author: Maniacal topaz fat ankles background story I can understand why it was created in the 1780s. Everyone lived in one state their entire lives, traveling to another state took a day's time and states had real "identities" that needed to be preserved. That is, Florida had rights vis. a vis Alabama and so forth (yes I know these weren't part of the 13 colonies).
But now people aren't really citizens of state s, they're just Americans. Everyone moves around and you can travel from state to state in a few hours. I have lived infive states in my lifetime; was I a different person in each of those states? Did I deserve my vote to be weighted more heavily based on which state I was in?
1 vote per person is a hallowed principle in most people's minds; explain what is so important as to make us violate that principle in favor of a system that gives people more of a vote based on where they choose to plant their feet come voting day. (I I live in Alaska in January my vote is worth a shitton but if I move to Arizona by November that worth is divided in half).
And for those go think the state's ARE desperate sovereigns deserving of some consideration why isn't the Senate enough?
Iplease let's keep this chill and civil. Tyia |

Neither rule makes particular sense in the modern era. But guess which rule dems don’t want to change and which one they do? |

Same argument for gerrymandering, fwiw.
For a five year old, I’d say that the men who created our system wanted to preserve important values and one man one vote was just *one* of a few important values — not the only one. |

A synecdoche is when you use a part of something to represent the whole. That is, Cornell is a part of the set of Top-50 schools. Technically, I did specify that I attended a non-Ivy so I should have used Northwestern or some other school (that I did not attend) as an example, but hopefully you get the point. |

Date: October 23rd, 2021 9:50 AM Author: Fuchsia new version I’ll give you a couple reasons:
1). Pure democracies tend to be the most oppressive form of government, which is why the founding fathers took so many precautions against it. The Melian Dialogues were discussed heavily during the debates on how to form the US government. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Melos#The_Melian_Dialogue
2). The electoral college guarantees the representation of independent-minded people who may not agree with mainstream thinking (this is the liberals primary objection to it). Not everyone in this country focuses on making money and living in the perfect crime free suburb.
3). The idea that a vote in Wyoming is worth more than a vote in California is a long-debunked canard. |

|
Date: October 23rd, 2021 10:32 AM Author: Fuchsia new version The fallacy lies in extending the logic that, because the population per elector in California is higher than Wyoming, the Wyoming vote is worth more. However, that is an overstated indicator because California has a greater percentage of the population that is ineligible to vote (non-citizens, under 18, etc.). There are still more voters per elector in California than Wyoming, but that margin is significantly lessened vs the numbers you see quoted in articles.
Secondly, the margin of victory in most presidential elections is large enough that a swing in the electoral votes of small states like Wyoming or North Dakota, even collectively, won’t change the outcome of the election. This renders the votes there basically worthless. The voters of Wyoming get to allocate a 3-elector block, which will have no impact on the election. California voters get to allocate a 55-elector block, which absolutely will impact the election. No one campaigns in Wyoming/Idaho/Utah/South Dakota, and when they do occasionally make a layover there, it’s to discuss issues that appeal to voters in California/New York/Texas/Florida.
Lastly, once the election is over, because those small states have so little political power, the issues of the voters there are ignored. Despite being “over represented” the populations of these small states usually have policies forced upon them by voters in California and New York (I.e. wild horses in Nevada, wolves in Wyoming, national monuments in Utah, etc.), rather than vice versa, which is regularly implied by political opinion writers. The issues cared about by voters in California, New York, Texas, and Florida are the issues that dominate the political processes.

No one ever gaf about "states" as entities, it's about empowering those individuals who happen to live disproportionately within lower-population territories.
If the constitution were written in 2021, and silicon valley/manhattan were located in some low-population territory, it would be written to empower that territory somehow. It's the same reason why Wyoming has 2 senators. |
