gollark: > Because in Michigan, those particular cities usually decide the votes due to their high population. I'm going to call it "favouring rural people" if they get more voting power than they would if it was proportional to actual population.
gollark: You could also call that a "representative democracy", but I don't think disputing definitions is helpful.
gollark: Are you saying that the electoral college system does *not* favour rural people over city ones, in general?
gollark: There are a lot of groups of people with different needs. Why favour rural people over city people instead of rich people over poor people or [race 1] over [race 2] or Apple users over Android users or whatever? It's arbitrary.
gollark: Please stop contradicting yourself on this, as it is very annoying.
