The main problem with using the popular vote is that we don't have a national ballot with voter registration requirements that are the same everywhere.  Granted, voter eligibility more uniform than it was even fifty years ago. much less than at the time of the adoption of the Constitution, but if ever want to go to the popular vote, we'd need to have it truly uniform.  The main problem with the electoral college can be solved by simply amending the Constitution so that the number of Electors each State gets is proportional to the umber of Representatives alone.
