So many complaints leveled against the electoral college but there's a reason for the founding fathers "great compromise" ...
The United States are made up of a bunch of smaller states such that all states are at least given 2 senators no matter the size so that means in one of the chambers of congress all states get equal representation in one part of the legislature ...
The states are unified, not monolithic and a popular vote doesn't make any sense so the founding fathers settled for the electoral college which unintentionally gave the smaller states we see today with more voting power ...
