That would result in civil war

Abolishing the Electoral College would be interesting. Politicians would pay less attention to more rural states, probably less subsidies for farmers (which would end up being bad for food prices). But also less silly ideas like Ethanol. Trump won the popular vote in 2024, its not so cut and dry about it just being an absolute blue team win. It would cause more republicans in blue states to vote in presidential campaigns, and more democrats in red states to vote. I know many people in NYS that just never bother to vote since their vote doesn't matter anyway.
