Since WW2, the Electoral College has favored Republicans 8 times (1948, 1952, 1968, 1976, 1984, 1988, 1992 and 2000) and Democrats 8 times (1956, 1960, 1964, 1972, 1980, 1996, 2004, 2008). Of course, it did only actually make a difference only in 2000, but it came insanely close to making a difference in 1960 as well - and in JFK's favor. There is absolutely no evidence that Republicans are structurally favored by the Electoral College.
