How is she going to get it done?

The Electoral College is part of the US Constitution.

The Constitution has a mandated change procedure, that is similar to the Electoral College—states decide.

The process is as follows:

Amendment proposals may be adopted and sent to the states for ratification by either:
—A two-thirds (supermajority) vote of members present—if a quorum exists—in both the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States Congress; or
—A majority vote of state delegations at a national convention called by Congress called at the request of the legislatures of at least two-thirds (at present 34) of the states. (This method has never been used.)

Then:

To become an operative part of the Constitution, an amendment, whether proposed by Congress or a national constitutional convention, must be ratified by either:
—The legislatures of three-fourths (at present 38) of the states; or
—State ratifying conventions in three-fourths (at present 38) of the states.

And getting 38 states will NEVER happen.

How does she propose to end the EC?

Once again, just as all democrats do, and especially Warren—talking out her ass.

In her world, a stroke of the pen ought to be sufficient. Of course, some people might protest and say it's not as easy as all that. But those people will be ... dealt with.
