No problem. Two-thirds of the house and senate or two-thirds of the state legislatures can propose an amendment or a Constitutional Convention.
Then, three quarters of the state legislatures can approve and make it law.
There is no way they will get more than ten states to go along with elimination of the electoral college. It disadvantages all of the states with low population.
So... Keep whining and tilting at windmills. It’s never going to happen.
An editorial with (1) very flimsy reasoning and faulty assumptions, proposing (2) a plainly doomed attempt to amend the Constitution. This, New York Times, is one of the main reasons you are going bankrupt.
