Answer:

The electoral system allows for the equal representation of all states with the population of the state taken into consideration.

Step-by-step explanation:

The electoral system today is a winner-takes-all system in which the candidate who was voted as the majority takes all the electoral votes from that particular state.

States with a greater population will have greater number of electoral votes, which make the stakes for those key states higher.

But this system allows for politicians to divert their attention to the smaller-populated states and ensure that their voices are heard, not just big states like California.
