One might think that a degree in accounting would, at the least, mean that there is an understanding of mathematical principles. However, that was not the case in a discussion with one of my friends about the Electoral College. He thinks it should be eliminated, but, when it gets down to how and why, it boils down to Hillary would have won in 2016, and that's all he needs to know.
I say the Electoral College needs to remain, and for this reason: it creates a formula through which a majority can be determined from a set of numbers that might not contain one that represents a majority.
"What?," he asks. "I don't even understand what you just said."
