Washington Debates Electoral Vote Plan

Item: Washington lawmakers debate electoral vote plan/Richard Roesler, Spokesman-Review

More Info: Lawmakers clashed today over a plan to award all of Washington’s electoral votes to the presidential candidate who wins the nationwide popular vote. Proponents say it’s a way of doing away with the winner-take-all Electoral College system under which someone – such as Al Gore in 2000 – can win more total votes yet still lose the election.

Question: What do you think of this plan?
