The alternative view is that CA, MA, and NY already get a Democrat candidate 95/270 or 35% of the way to the Presidency with just 20% of the population. Do those states really need a greater impact?

By taking advantage of the tiny states the EC can be won with less than 30% of the vote https://www.npr.org/2016/11/02/500112248/how-to-win-the-presidency-with-27-percent-of-the-popular-vote https://www.npr.org/2016/11/02/500112248/how-to-win-the-pres...
