It’s not that it doesn’t matter, it’s just that certain states everyone knows it’s going either red or blue, so both sides barely turn out. Look at CA, less than 1/3 of the population turned out to vote because everyone knows it’s going blue whether they go out to the polls or sit at home.

This is also why abandoning the electoral college might not have the effect that those advocating it hope it would. Totally different game.

Don’t worry, when they lose the popular vote but win the presidency whenever that may be they will be all for the electoral college. They realized packing illegals and committing voter fraud in one state doesn’t matter, CA has 55 electoral votes whether it goes blue by a margin of 100 votes or 30 million votes.
