You live in Kentucky, right? We're pretty fortunate here in that we don't have a lot of poll manipulation. Voters in states like Georgia where you may need to bring two meals and a lawn chair to vote would probably disagree that it's not difficult to cast your vote.

The EC was, in part, established because of the time and distance issues in voting, along with preventing someone democratically elected but who was a potential danger. Which, largely, shouldn't be an issue now for the time and distance as we have the technology. Opting not to use it in favor of making the voting process as difficult as possible doesn't seem to be in the spirit of making everyone vote equal.
