I think the system would be incredibly unfair without something to balance the votes among states. The real problem is that the president/federal government has too much power, things shouldn't change drastically from one president to the next. Imagine if every time you had a block party everyone voted on the type of food, but there was one huge family that shared a dietary preference that most of the other families disliked. You would have to go with what they said every time, just because they aren't keeping their household population under control. Some might say it would be more fair to give every family a vote, but If someone lives alone their vote would count way more than someone living with 20 others. The next step would be something like the electoral college. That said, they should definitely get rid winner-takes-all per state, and increase the amount of votes for every state. I think it would be nice if every state had 100 electoral votes that mapped to the percentage points of who their population voted for.
