God forbid that voters actually get to vote directly for the candidate of their choice. The electoral college plus gerrymandering are the only way that republican candidates can win elections these days.
Sorry I don't want LA, NY City, Seattle or other big cities that support democrats electing a president for the whole country.
They are chosen by the state parties on behalf of their respective candidates. But the US Constitution does not mention political parties, so there must be some sort of law or Court ruling that regulates this process more specifically.

Liberals are the most fair and ethically sound party ever.
Just go look at the liberal fbi, the liberal cia, the liberal nsa, the liberal doj, the liberal media, the liberal academia, the liberal social media, the liberal Lamestream Blamestream Fakestream Mainstream media, the liberal irs, cry me a river .
Thank God Trump won in 2016. Think of the countless left wing anti-Constitutional judges that would have been put on the bench. 8 years of Obama judges is bad enough.
But it's OK for rural people that support republicans to elect a president for the whole country?
One of the places I mentioned as an example Seattle located in King County, had 998,499 voters in 2016, 718,322 voted for Hillary, 216,339 voted for Trump.
Go to a neighboring county Kittata had 18,955 voters. 7,489 voted for Hillary, 10,100 voted for Trump. So tell me. How can it be possible for a rural area to override a high population area.
Elementary school lesson: The electoral college gives ALL states (even the small ones) a voice.
Please educate yourself about it. It's quite brilliant.

You don't understand how our country was founded. It's not a strict democracy, it's a democratic republic, The United STATES of America. States AND individuals share the responsibility of electing our President.
