Can anyone explain logically why the electoral college exists? Why isn't the election just popular vote?
Regional interests, & Basically originally it’s because the founders didn’t fully trust the people so it is more election by representative democracy but also because of coastal cities & states would essentially decide the president with no consideration of rural or smaller state interests.
Put it as non biased as I could.
