Not to mention the fact that the NY Slimes was probably in the forefront of media shills calling for the abolition of the Electoral College in the aftermath of the 2000 election fiasco in which Al Gore tried to steal the Presidency.
As it is, I would like to see Michigan’s electoral votes awarded according to districts won. If a candidate wins 8 districts, that’s all the electoral votes he gets from that state.
That way, they could produce a billion votes in Detroit and it wouldn’t mean a thing because they would still only win the electoral vote of the district.
It also much more closely represents the will of the people like the house.
“The issue is never the issue. The issue is the revolution.”
