MessageThats where you have it wrong, You guys in the US have a weird electoral system where all these populous states get more electoral delegates and votes than the ones with less. That means the candidates will only target the states who have the biggest number of votes which will get them into power easier, however with equal representation it will make the candidates work extra hard to secure each and every vote. Here in Britain and in the majority of the world its much more fairer and better.

MessageWell I'm not going to argue with you that the U.S. election system is flawed but a more populas state needs more repersatives then a smaller one. So I'm voting no.

MessageSir from the Independent Party, communism has nothing to do with my proposal here, so don't call other parties commies when it is completely irrelevant in this context. Anyway, calling us commies is a compliment not an insult
