Firstly because the electoral college does not wholly decide who becomes the next president. Even though there have been disputed cases where the electoral college makes an unpopular decision this is not at all the norm. Voting is a constitutional right and a fundamental aspect of democracy which makes a difference in who gets elected. Especially because the electoral college is only involved in presidential elections. Otherwise it is entirely up the people who is elected to positions such as state representative, state senator, and local positions like the school board or probate judge.
