The Electoral College was established by our Founding Fathers in order to guarantee suitable representation for states that were less populated than others. It has worked ever since then. You're right, PR. There weren't any complaints when Obama won by Electoral College votes in 2008 and 2016. Without the Electoral College, we would be ruled by California, New York and Illinois and that's a dismal prospect, considering what those states are experiencing now.
