elimination of the Electoral College

elimination of the Electoral College

Election of the President and Vice President of The United States of America shall be by a simple majority of the votes cast among all states and territories of The United States of America.

Points

one person, one vote is true democracy.

One person, one vote. Eliminate the Electoral College so that the Will of the People can no longer be manipulated by gerrymandering and state variances on vote splitting

I personally agree with this 100%, however I fear this is the amendment proposal most likely to lead to a civil war. I think we have a greater chance of gaining new states than eliminating this arcane process. Maybe this is the next "great compromise" topic?
