I would say so. Just look at the election of 2000 where Gore won the popular vote but lost the election. Bush lead the popular vote most of the evening until the west coast started adding greatly to Gores totals. Obviously the States Gore won were by wider popular vote margins than Bush margins in States that he won. So that is a good example of the need to appeal to a wide variety of voters whether they be from the northeast, west coast, midwest, or deep south. This is the part of the genious of the writers of our Constitution.

>Ok, that makes some sense, but aren't the electoral votes per state based on population? Is it just a way of bringing everyone closer to the center of the bell curve? If so, then it's not necessarily a bad thing.
