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

In our back and forth, you rooted your argument in the practical contemporary application, not in some faux historical context. I am not lumping you into that group. 

 A lot of people made anachronistic arguments, trying to draw authoritative support from sources that never argued their point of view. One person went so far as to tell me that the delegate who argued for a straight popular vote actually stated that the EC should give rural areas the same voice as highly populated areas (the delegate in question never said that).
