I very much like the electoral college as it seems to me to strongly favor Republican candidates. I don't see anyone being able to push through a constitutional amendment to change it. However I could foresee one and only one way to gain more advantage - for Northern and Southern California to split. The two halves and the rural part of the state are becoming more and more alienated, and it is a place where all sorts of bizarre voter initiatives occur. Is this a possible scenario? If the new 'South California' included enough of the rural areas it would give us a good chance of Republican victories - for both EC and Senate seats.
LOL. The good ole days.
