Ray, how does the college provide equal voices for states with lower populations since the number of electors is so significantly less for those states than for states like Ohio and other much more populous states. In addition, when you live in a "winner takes all" state, as most states are, only the voters who voted for the candidate that carried the state are the ones whose vote counts. If a candidate carries such a state with 51% of the vote then 49% of the voters have, essentially, been disenfranchised. To me, that's hardly equal and fair representation.
