That wouldn't really be fair. It would take us back to colonial America where elections are determined by the physical area of voters, not population.
Plus, the EC system greatly benefits Democrats and Obama because it supresses non-Democrat/ignorant voters in states like California, Washington, New York, and Oregon.
Based on that, I have no idea why the Democrats cried about it so much in 2000 and 2004 since it benefits them so much.
