The Electoral College not only was put together because of the difficulty in communication at that time, but it prevents the more populated areas from completely ruling the less populated areas. States like Montana and Wyoming would be completely voiceless. This form of balance is also noticed in the Senate where each state gets an equal amount of Senators (2).
Not to mention changing the process would make HUGE changes to the Constitution and you can imagine how many years it would roll around in the House and Senate before anything (if ever) happened.
I'm the bawss.
