Ron, a change in the electoral college giving all states an equal number of electors would be redundant. We already have a system of equal representation for all states. It's called the Senate. Now, assuming that if a candidate wins the popular vote in any given state that both Senators would be obligated to "elect" that candidate regardless of their party affiliation, you're saying that no president should be elected unless they win a majority of the senate.

Can you see how that system would disenfranchise millions of people?
