I honestly don't recall anyone bringing up any issues with the electoral system prior to the 2000 election and wonder how much of the debate is really sour grapes (not directed at anyone participating in this thread, but in general).

I know not all state laws require their electoral college delegates to vote the way the general election turned out. They are only bound by honor and duty which is quite variable when it comes to politics.
The EC is brought up after every election. The bitching is louder after close ones.
