The presence of the EC has now given inordinate power and access to "battleground" states, most notably Florida and North Carolina. I think its time to revisit this. It's important to remember that one of the reasons for the EC is that some of the framers thought the election of the President was too important to be entrusted to the People. Electors in some States (including ours) are not bound to vote for the Popular vote winner. This is a system that has outlived its usefulness and should be changed, IMHO.
