Allows room for changes

It appears that it is time for a standardization of voting procedures in the United States and that includes standard ballots. To those who oppose doing away with the Electoral College and going to a popular vote with the argument that in less populated areas the vote wouldn’t count: 2+2 =4 any way you do it, electoral college or not. The Constitution of the United States was designed to make room for change. Think about it. It took an amendment to give women the right to vote. It is time for true democracy to take hold.
