A person in Wyoming has more say with the EC system in a presidential election than a person in Texas. This is before we even get into parties, because we're just talking about the population per EC vote distribution. If it takes fewer people to make up an EC vote in one state than another, then the state where it takes fewer people has voters that are getting more of a say in the election.
