How would campaigns be run with no Electoral College?

The myth propagated by dumb people is that campaigns would focus solely on big cities like NYC and LA even though urban populations account for what, 20-25% of the nation? I'm just making that number up but it can't be as much as people think.

But what would the real strategies be? It'd be much more exciting to see Democrats campaigning in Texas and Republicans campaigning in New York than the same old Ohio and Florida visits.

It would certainly provide a lot of trial and error in the first few campaigns. It'd be crazy.

Because the US is a very large country in both population and area, not to mention the diversity, so it wouldn't be as easy as running a gubernatorial campaign or a national campaign in smaller countries in Europe or whatever. Campaign strategy would change dramatically and obviously be unique in some ways.
