Professor John Feerick was quoted in The Huffington Post about the obsolescence of the Electoral College.
John Feerick, professor of law at Fordham University, said, “Not only have reasons for the Electoral College long since vanished but the institution has not fulfilled the design of the framers. Today it represents little more than an archaic and undemocratic counting device. There is no good reason for retaining such a formula of electing the president of the United States.”
