Should the electoral college be abolished?
Yes, and switch to a ranked voting system
I would also like multi-member districts as well, aka proportional ranked-choice voting.
Voters vote on the basis of party and party members choose who to run. I like the idea better than the electoral college certainly but prefer the idea of a ranked voting system. Essentially, a system where you choose your top candidates in varying degrees and assign them a certain number of points. For instance one may choose 1. Bernie Sanders 2. Andrew Yang 3. Elizabeth Warren. The top contender may receive three points while the second gets two and the third receives one point. Whoever has the most points by the end of the election wins. I think this would encourage moderation in politics.
