Palm Beach Post Readers It's time to drag the Electoral College into the 21st century. No, I don't mean to eliminate it in favor of a national plurality count. That is a bridge too far, and the smaller states will never agree to such a proposal. However, there are things that can be done that will keep the Electoral College system and still more closely reflect the will of the people. The first thing to do is to eliminate the electors, a 19th-century anachronism. The next step is the tallying of the electoral votes. This should never be done by a political entity. That's it. No objections...
