    A system that provides states with few people to nullify the voters of states with large populations is touted as a system that makes sense! It made sense in 1787, when it was crucial to the ratification of the Constitution and the electorate was made up of white middle class males, but it doesn't now. Remember, the electoral college theoretically can take a one vote plurality in each state and DC and turn it into a "landslide" 538 to 0 victory.
