It's why I support the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
One thing I have noticed is people tend to use anachronisms to defend it, presenting arguments not relevant to 1787-91.
There also seems to be a flaw in arguing that a system that values all voters equally would be more discriminatory than a system that values some voters more than other. "In order for less people in smaller states to matter, we should ignore more people in bigger states" is the crux of it.
