re: #305 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

I am in favor of keeping the EC but

a) re-weighting it to represent each stateโ€™s population, not its congressional delegates,

and

b) only have it kick in if no candidate wins a clear majority of the popular vote.

But either requires a Constitutional amendment. And, unfortunately, (b) would not have helped in 2016 or 2000, but it would prevent my scenario of a candidate winning 70% of the vote but losing the election.
