What one is likely to gain in a blue state would be offset by losses in red states. Within the last ten years states including California were discussing forming a compact to adopt a process whereby states would agree to direct their electors to vote for the candidate winning the popular vote.

Our current system at least gives smaller states a shot at having some influence on the presidential election.

The states can change the way they choose electors any way they want. It has nothing to do with the electoral college which is fine the way it is.

You can’t honestly be this dense. Now worry about your state and I’ll worry about mine.
