Abort! Abort!

I personally don't believe in abortions. I believe that everyone deserves a chance at life. However my problem with the electoral college is that it was created to decrease the power of the government. Although the representatives of the electoral colleges were elected by the states in which they come from it is not up to them to contradict the laws of the government. The laws created by the government were created for a reason. What am i talking about you ask?
I am talking about the government's 1st amendment that says freedom of religion. Now what does that have to do with anything? My topic is about abortion and the government. According to Wikipedia.org "...the Supreme court struck down state laws banning abortion ruling that such laws was violated an implied right of privacy...."However some states ban abortion under certain conditions. However in some cases religion may allow abortion under these conditions. In these cases state laws are contradicting those of the 1st amendment.
Although no religions completely accept abortion. I believe it is wrong for states to make laws on abortion that contradict the laws of the the higher power, the Supreme court. Also, though the electoral college is suppose to support the states, they are responsible for knowing the law and what's right. Is the electoral college fair or are they just working to gain more power for the state in which they are representing?

I think you should look up the rle of the electoral colege in elections. It looks like you have some information a little twisted. Abortion rights have played a role in getting votes from certain population groups... that's another theme you could look up across different elections...
