Please show us where in the Constitution there is anything about individuals "voting for President"

I don't get the entirety of your argument, but, it is individuals who vote for president, even if they are accumulated towards groups known as electors. Without the citizen voters, there would not be electors appointed. Thus, it comes down to the lowest point where the individual citizen voters determine who will be elected. Why do you think polls represent a survey of what the voters are thinking? It's not polls about state 'electors' or state legislators.

And, btw, the constitution doesn't spell out exactly what is exactly meant 'individual voters' but, it's well understood what it meant. That's why we have supreme court justices to 'interpret' what is or was meant by what the constitution provided.

Of course there would be. That’s the whole point of the system described in the Constitution.
