Answer:

A. did not trust the judgement of the common people in electing the President

Explanation:

The American system of voting through the electoral college was created in the 18th century by the founders of the United States, who said they were concerned that citizens might not be judged when electing their president.

Broadly speaking, the major parties - Democrat and Republican - organize primaries to choose their candidates and then convene to confirm the nomination of who received the most votes. The country goes to the polls after a three-and-a-half-month national millionaire campaign. It takes 270 delegates to be elected.
