Your currently being Ruled & controled by a wealthy ruling class of puppet masters using puppet politicians a minority & everyone wants to know when thier getting a piece of the pie! Rarely if ever happens with this orchestraighted numbers game.

Abolished. The system was put in to facilitate the logistics of the day and is out dated.
If you only want to modify it I have a suggestion, do away with winner take all in each state.
Since the electoral college is an extention of the Representatives and Senators in Congress, allocate the votes along those lines. If a candidate wins a congressional district he/she gets the electoral vote associated with that district. The two electoral votes associated with the Senators would go to the candidate that wins the state.
This way would greatly reduce the probability of a President being elected but getting fewer votes than his/her opponent.

Abolished. In the days when it was established, technology and infrastructure pretty much dicated the need to have an electoral college to facilitate the presidential election.
In this day an age, with all the technology etc. we know pretty much on election night who wins and who has the majority popular vote. So there's really no need for the electoral college anymore.

Not abolished, but reformed. If a candidate wins a Congressional district, he gets 1 EV. If he wins the popular vote within a state, he gets 2 EVs. The electoral college itself is no longer necessary.
What we really need to do is reform the primary system. Candidates waste so much money early on that Iowa and New Hampshire decide who runs in November.

I like the idea of the electoral college because it can give more representation to the less populated states (because the have a minimum of 2 votes.) The framers didn't want the big states to control everything, so they made the Senate. The electoral college is similar for the executive branch.
I wouldn't be opposed to it being reformed if it kept that aspect.
