Since the Republicans have in recent years polished the art of appealing to special interests and single-issue voters, they have thereby pretty well locked in certain states, and are swiftly Gerrymandering others. They would no doubt fight any attempt to change the electoral process right now, since they 'might' win a popular vote, but would be even more likely to be able to manipulate an electoral vote.......They do not care for the idea that all the Democrats in Alabama would have the same power as Democrats in Mass. or New York.

I personally would like to see the electoral system eliminated, as well as changing the nominating process for candidates and adjusting the primary system so that every state would have some input.....and then SHORTENING the entire nomination and campaign schedule to a few months.
