How big of a vote gap would it take for you to drop the Electoral College?

It’s sour grapes by a bunch of whiny entitled cry babies. Get over it!  If you seriously cannot understand why having a couple large states’ populations determine the outcome of a federal election is a bad thing you shouldn’t even be allowed to vote.

This post sounds more like a caricature of conservatism than actual conservatism.

The idea that wanting to improve systems is a bad thing is something that I've never understood.


The EC is not perfect. So why not try to improve it?

You act like not having EC would make only a few states determine the president but...that's literally what happens every year already. There are about 10 swing states that decide every single election. Why is that a better system than "the person who gets the most votes should win?"
