You just stated it was mainly favored by smaller states. Urban and rural have nothing to do with this. You only favor the system because it still gives republicans a chance for presidency. Each vote needs to be at least true proportional represented in the electoral college if it is to still exist. Throw out the electors and just let the states vote be divided proportionally.

That's exactly how it's setup now.......

Electoral votes are setup by population. More population = more votes.

I'm talking about the winner takes all the most states have.  You win the state then you win all the electoral votes for that state.  That wipes out all the other votes for anyone else but the winner.  Some states split the votes up but not many.  Most states are winner takes all.  It should be divided up based on the percentage of votes each candidate receives.
