Just objectively the EC doesn’t make sense anymore.
Without the EC, eight cities would control the county. The interests of someone in NYC are not the same as someone in Des Moines. The EC allows that someone in Des Moines to cast a vote that actually means something.

Which 8? Doe they all vote the same? Does EVERYONE in those cities vote? Do they all vote the same?
People keep using this worst case scenario to bash political
Here is the reality of the EC as is
If you win the 11 most states with the most electors by 1 vote each you win the election even if you lose 100% of the rest of the vote.
It’s simply a broken system that enables the a minority to overrule a plurality.
And most of the time it doesn’t matter almost always the 2 are the same.
