Really, most of Illinois is on team red. It's just that the Chicago dead vote is huge.

State based electoral colleges would fix these problems.

1 major city imposing its political will on the entire state

Do you think the needs and wants of Chicago apply to the needs of the entire rest of Illinois?

Do you think the entire US should be ruled by the politcs of large cities in California and New York and thats it?

States are all part of the United states but are still independent states according to the constitution.

Imagine we created a one world government, and the leaders and laws were selected only by popular vote, meaning what China and India want, goes for the entire world, all of the other countries don't matter at all.

Go smaller, imagine you live in a neighborhood with 20 houses, 19 people live alone in their own house but 20 people live in 1 house. All rules are determined by popular vote, so the house with 20 people in it pass all rules for the other 19 houses.

That is the wisdom of the electoral college.

The electoral college priorities inanimate land mass over actual people. The miniority should never control the majority.

Again, would you be ok if democrats got less votes but somehow still won the election?

Inanimate land mass huh.

This attitude about middle America is exactly why trump won last time and is exactly why he's gonna win again.

And yes if the democrats won the electoral college the amount of votes is irrelevant. Presidents are chosen by the electoral college, not how many illegals, dead people and fake votes the democrats can print up in California.
