Good. We should get rid of the Electoral College anyway. An utter and complete anachronism. And getting rid of it is about the ONLY chance we will have of ever winning the WH again.

The end of the Electoral College means that the Dems will be the permanent majority party. The Electoral College is the result of Federalism and states' rights. The Dems will pile up huge majorities in the urban areas and in big states. The GOP will never win the WH again.

We will become like the empires of yore, mega cities which dominated vast swathes of surrounding countryside for their own aggrandizement - kind of like Chicago controls IL.

You’re absolutely right. The Democrats could focus entirely on major metropolitan areas, like Chicago and New York, and ignore states like Oklahoma (and even Texas beyond Dallas). This would also make it much easier for them to win elections by voting fraud.
