	3PT - Electoral College Primer
		Makeup and operation of the electoral college itself are tightly defined by the Constitution, but the method of choosing electors is left to the states.
		Many see the apportioning of the electoral college votes by states as a basic flaw, because it gives each of the smaller states at least three electoral votes, even though on a straight population basis some might be entitled to only one or two.
		Another argument made by defenders of the electoral college is that the present method serves American democracy well by fostering a two-party system and thwarting the rise of splinter parties such as those that have plagued many European democracies.
