It's in place now because my vote should count for something

Sure, but should it count more than someone's vote in a more populous state? I assume you live in a smaller, rural state. That is not democracy if all votes are not equal. I don't know what the term for it would be. Ruralocracy?

A CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released shortly after the debate indicated that more who watched it thought Kerry did a better job. Among the poll's 511 respondents, 53 percent said Kerry did better, and 39 percent said Bush did.
