Someone has come up with this regarding the flaws of the electoral collage 
based on population.
He has a state by state chart for how much weight each vote gets from each 
state.  Weird:

Those of us who live with it would also like an explanation, now and
again!

I dimly recall, from High School civics classes (do they still have
"civics classes?"), having the theory of the Electoral College
explained, but it is lost in the mists.

On photographing the polls, I checked with our local registrar of
voters.  She said there isn't a problem as long as the photographers are
"unobtrusive."  Our local newspaper photog will be shooting today, at
our polling stations.  

One of the advantages of living in a small town, I guess.
