    They shouldn't.

    But just because you and people like Donald Trump are imagining that there are people voting who are not allowed to vote...doesn't mean the almost 40,000,000 people of California should be shortchanged in the EC.

    Asked...answered.

    Wyoming gets two electoral votes because its a state, just like California does.......it gets one electoral vote for its 600,000 people, which is the minimum # you can have...........sorry you weren't aware of how the electoral collage works......
    I am aware of how the Electoral College works. I can even spell Electoral College correctly.

    I am simply noting that the system causes the EC to be unfairly weighted toward the Republican Party...which is the reason that although the head of the RP claims the EC is unfairly weighted toward the Democratic Party...the Republicans in congress will not make any attempts to change things.

    you aren't paying attention.......your EC votes are based upon numbers that include illegal aliens......it is irrelevant whether they are allowed to vote.....why should they counted toward how many votes (and congressmen) you get?.......

    but it is not......it is weighted exactly in the way that the founders of this country intended it to be be weighted....which is to balance out the rights of both the more populous and less populous states..at that point in time neither the Republican Party or the demmycrat party even existed, so it was not done "toward" either party......

    Then you're a hypocrite they are proportioned exactly the same.

    But the Electoral College seems to bother Donald Trump. He seems to think that it favors the Democrats over Republicans...when in fact, it tends to favor the Republicans over Democrats.

    Proof of the pudding is that with the Republicans are in the majority in both houses of Congress...and they could easily propose an amendment to do away with the EC. I don't see that happening.

    Like I said...it would truly be bipartisan support...IF REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP COULD GET ANY REPUBLICANS TO VOTE FOR IT. Most (perhaps all) would not, because the truth is that the EC greatly favors the Republicans.
    No it doesn't, we don't know what the popular vote would have been had that been the campaign that was run, republicans neither bother to run or vote in states like California, New York, or Illinois.

    Okay...if you want to use population of the state registered to vote:

    Wyoming has 284,000 registered voters...California has 18,200,000 registered voters.

    Still ends up that instead of 55 electoral votes...California should have close to 200 in order for it to be fair.

    That's funny; because I was also at the Orlando Airport this weekend and I met Puerto Rican family that was moving to the States.
    We were talking and they started laughing of how they told this possibly insane person, who kept asking them if they hated Trump and loved the DNC, that they were going to register as Democrats, just so he would leave them alone.

    SEDITION: incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority.

    one vote for 284,000 means 64 votes for 18,200,000.....not 200.....

    hey dumbfuck......you're talking about WHY it was set up, it wasn't set up to favor any particular party.......it WAS set up to keep highly populated states from dominating elections.......in other words, it is working exactly the way it was intended to.....

    it's just sad
    To Dems, the ends justify the means even if the means is an illegal act.
