Democrats should hope it happens more. The EC/PV disparity is partly due to the fact that they pile up so many wasted votes in California.

Uh, no?  Those "wasted votes" in the presidential election usually help carry downballot Dems over the finish line in some of the swingier congressional districts.

Besides, there would be no such thing as a "wasted vote" or an EC/PV disparity if we could just hurry up and get rid of the EC already.

Oh, and the swing we're talking about here is a whopping 0.83%.  That's slightly less than the swing from Obama to Romney in 2012.
