I have an unpopular opinion, If anything I think it should be switched over to large states have the same amount of Electoral College votes as small state, no more one state having 20+ votes versus one state having four make every state have equal say.
One state one vote, that vote is decided based off the popular vote of the state.
It makes zero sense to me that in a country where every state is supposed to have equal rights that States like California can have 54 votes, where States like Rhode Island and Maine have less than five.
The system would also Force our candidates to focus on more than just the Battleground States because it makes it so every state is a Battleground state, the amount of people that are in the state don’t matter since the vote is based off popular vote so everyone’s vote counts in the first place, while it also keeps the protections that the electoral college has allowing the smallest things to keep having a say.
I have no idea the impact such a system would do with the current electoral system, but I do believe it would be fair
