I think it's bullshit that the electoral college numbers don't follow the percentage of votes too.

What I mean is...it SHOULD be that if a guy gets 30% of the popular vote in a state, he should get 30% of that states electoral votes.

But it's "winner take all" Which means that Romney could get 51% to Obama's 49% in a particular state (maybe only by a couple of hundred votes) but he gets 100% of the electoral votes.
It's total bullshit.
