While I'm used to the issues of FPTP, I can't pretend to understand the basic premise behind the electoral college.

Independents can get elected and new parties can arrise in FPTP, despite being more difficult than some other systems; so my guess is that I'm wildly underestimatong the fuckery that is the electoral college.
