The prominent voting patterns and social values of those areas also directly influence the electoral system too (i.e. "Such and Such State is historically a Republican/Democratic Stronghold.") All I'm saying is if 55% of the people from any given state vote for Douche "A" and 45 vote for Douche "B" it is highly unfair for Douche "A" to win all the electoral votes.

Majority should rule no matter what voting patterns or social values are prominent, IMO.
