    Have you met people? They’re terrible.

    Um… That’s how the United States of America got the Senate and infamous Electoral College.

    Are you saying you are in favor of the Electoral College of the US, and State Legislatures appointing US Senators?

      Electoral College yes, in favor

      Senators appointed by legislature no, not in favor

      Don’t get me wrong, I’m in favor of Electoral College reform. I think in particular unbinding electors is necessary, as is doing away with the “winner-take-all” distribution of electors. And while uncapping the House isn’t EC reform per se, doing so would make a drastic improvement to how representative the EC would be. These three things would fix most of the problems with the EC, ranked-choice voting or similar would take care of the rest.
