The Truth about the Electoral College
|
Quote:One theory as to why the Founding Fathers put the Electoral College in place was to protect slave states. Slaves couldn't vote, but they were counted as 3/5 of a person when determining the population upon which the amount of electoral votes a state casts is based. It's no coincidence 8 of our first 9 presidential elections were won by Virginians. Exactly backwards, slave states wanted slaves counted equally with free persons for delegates to Congress. The Compromise prevented them from donimating the Legislature. “An empty vessel makes the loudest sound, so they that have the least wit are the greatest babblers.”. - Plato
