"As I have written before, rather than protecting the influence of small states, it grants overwhelming power to a handful of states that randomly happen to have a close partisan balance, which are mostly fairly large."

A handful of large states will have overwhelming power, but that is ok since it won't be contested power. It will be all Democrats.
