There are 2 important factors.
-
Very few people are doing their research and making a logical decision about who will best represent their interests. They will just vote for whoever their friends vote for.
-
The way the president is elected through the electoral college means that a few states are over represented. IDK the numbers but for example, it might be possible to become president with as few as 40% of the votes.
I would but no one would be interested
