Episode description

Richard thinks that we should not get rid of the electoral college, but make the popular vote just as important. Is that more feasible than completely changing electoral politics? And more importantly, is that cool?

“How cool is this compromise? Don't destroy, be constructive. Allow for a vote in big cities, as well as rural states to count on election day: 50% electoral college, 50% popular vote.”
