Would you abolish the Electoral College?

The EC serves to dilute the power of “will of the people.”

No, the EC protects each individual state. The Federal Government is the creation of the states. That’s why they’re not provinces or prefectures.

EC is a dispersal of power to mitigate the unchecked will of “the people.”

EC was negotiated by the smaller states or there would be no Constitution.

Yes. Because the inherent danger of unchecked democracy was known. People were smart.
