   For most of my life I pronounced the name of the capitol incorrectly. The pronunciation of the capitol sounds like peer.

   Would you want your neighbor to dictate what you can or cannot do? Or the HOA you may live in? Each vote is equally valuable as each state is. Our republican from of government is a way to insure that. The electors of each state determine which candidate receives that state’s electoral votes. This requires a candidate to have a broader consensus with the people and not focus on the states/regions that will give them the 270 EC votes.History has shown that straight democracies eventually descend into tyrannies of the majority.For a more in-depth study of the EC, I recommend a book by Tara Ross entitled The Indispensable Electoral College. It also addresses the National Popular Vote movement.
