He's right, The EC needs to go away.
Yes, when only one of the two major parties has to win the EC in order to become President, that's a massive issue. But, even without that, the only states that seem to attract any attention during these races are the various races that are close enough for either candidate to potentially win. No GOP politician has really bothered to contest WA since sometime in the early '80s,even though it wasn't that long ago that GOP candidates were within a few thousand votes of taking the governorship, in which case it could have potentially been in play with the right platform.
