If the electoral college favors a Republican win, how much will that be a factor in attempts to abolish it? In other words if it becomes more and more likely that whenever a Democrat wins the popular vote in close elections s/he is unlikely to win the electoral college, will not such results tend to lead to an abolishment of the electoral college?
Of course, the problem is, that the more the electoral college favors the Republicans, it is possible that it also be easier for them to gain control of Congress. It is virtually impossible to change or abolish the electoral college without both parties help.
