Excellent question since a few thousand votes switched in CA would have done that, while keeping Wilson’s rather substantial PV lead.

I’ll go out on a limb and say the EC would either be replaced with a proportional as opposed to winner-take-all system or abolished altogether. IRL the South has always been the chief obstacle to change in the EC system, and seeing their candidate lose while winning the PV just might change their minds.
