Something Wrong with the Electoral College?

It depends on what you mean by “wrong.”

If you favor the democratic notion of “one vote to one person,” then, to be sure, this is wrong.  The ballots of voters in small states count several times more than those cast in large states.  For instance, the ratio of electoral votes to total population in Wyoming is 3.7 times greater than that ratio in California.

On the other hand, if you’re a Republican operative who wants to favor “fly-over” states, then the electoral college fits your agenda very, very well.
