... America isn't a democracy, it is a republic. Secondly, the electoral college has been around since the start of the nation, so I am unsure what you mean by, restore.

I'm not against the electoral college because it gave us two unpopular republicans in recent years, I'm against it because it upholds the two party system and intentionally ignores the votes of contrarians in more solid red or blue states. You can't tell me theres no one thing you would change about the voting system? One thing you distrust?

Oh boy... How about instead of paranoia over freaking GEORGE SOROS for crying out loud we actually discuss meaningful changes like abolishing the electoral college and maybe (though this will probably never happen) shifting to an unicameral parliamentary system instead of our ridiculous two-party disaster?

The unicameral legislature has nothing to do with a two-party system. Several states have a bicameral legislature and a multi-party system. The voting system needs to change not the legislature
