Just a correction to the OP ... the Electoral College was used by the Holy Roman Empire to elect their emperor ... that predates our forefathers by many hundreds of years ... this was already an tried and true methodology that our educated forefathers had studied ... they thought it suited our purposes quite well ...
Is your argument that it doesn't work today and we should change it? ... Sure, 2/3's of each house of Congress and 3/4's the States ... the EC gives more power to smaller states, as designed ... and the 2016 election clearly demonstrates that one party can't focus on just a few big rich states, they have to win poor rural states as well ... no way are the small states voting to take their power away ... so just forget change until we return ourselves the the English Crown ...
