unless you live in a battleground state like Ohio or Colorado your vote is already cast the electoral college has already pulled the lever so sit back and et ready for another ride you didnt sign up for want real change get rid of the elecoral college and sop fighting over candidates that dont matter to you cus your vote wont be counted.

But then the guy that hands over citizenship to all mexican illegal immigrant will win, and your vote will truly count for nothing.

Electoral college is designed to give some consideration to tiny states like some attention.
