Clinton: Time to remove the electoral college!

So... voting by acreage. I don't see what could go wrong here.

I originally said county... so unless you dictate a county by average acerage, then: YAAFM

Did you know that counties were designed by acreage? 1 day's ride from the center.

Yes, and by the crow flies is the amount I give a fuck.

The point is that we don't follow that standard any more. If we did, Mass and NH would be a county.

Well, that's why they're so much smaller in the East.

Were they riding raccoons?

They had horses.

I think you read that on a snapple cap.

Well, I mean, if we're using acreage, then at least that's consistent. It still doesn't make any sense, but ok.

If we're using counties, then we're not even distributing the acreage evenly.

Counties out west are fucking huge. Horses didn't suddenly get stupid fast around the time those lines were drawn. It has to be something else. I think I've watched a video about it before.

Medieval counties were designed that way. A parish was an area in which you could reasonably walk to mass in the mornings. A county was an area you could reasonably travel by horse in a day.

The origin of it is in the Diocletian reforms.

This is feudalism 101, guys.

We got trains, and most of the West was just wasteland anyway. That's why the states are bigger, too.

So... nothing to do with a guy on a horse.
