I’d love if we could have ranked choice and/or just purely popular vote. But yeah as it stands the lower population states get extra points in federal elections for “fairness.” This is how Trump won the first time; he lost the popular vote but still won the election. That wasn’t the case the second time, but it still doesn’t make much sense that that can happen.
