I don't want 3 or 4 major coastal cities deciding every election which is what would happen is the EC is done away with. 3/4+ of the Country is Red.
I wonder how our elections would look if each county in the USA got 1 electoral vote. Based on a quick look at the map, Dems would not be winning anything anytime soon.

NY is actually a very red state controlled by a few Dem cities unfortunately. Almost 7/8 of NY is red, yet we are controlled by Dems.

I didn't post the links for the articles, I posted them for the maps. Didn't even look at the articles.
This is like saying a nickel should be worth more than a dime because it is bigger.
7/8 of the population of New York is not red.
