The Electoral College should continued to be used in the election process of the President and Vice-President. The Electoral College helps maintain a two party and a federal system of government. It also makes the candidates appear to many different states instead of just a few because no candidate can win the majority of the electoral votes just by appealing to a certain region of the United States. Contrary to belief,the Electoral College is a democratic way of voting. Our government is a representative democracy which is exactly what the Electoral College is. Its a group of representatives that help pick our President. If the Electoral College was to be considered to be abolished,two-thirds of both houses would have to agree to it and three-fourths of the states would have to ratify it.
