The electoral college was the solution that was agreed upon after all better solutions were tossed out.

It was a system designed to give slave states more power (technically not just during elections: slaves were counted as three-fifths of a person which influenced how many Congresscritters were elected).

So you have to ask yourself, where are all those slave states? Why do we use a racist system when there are no slave states?

I’d say, but you already know.
