Is it likely the electoral college voting system will be thrown out? No, for the aforementioned historical reasons.

The most fair realistic format would be either 1 vote per electoral district or an even division (to the fraction of a vote) of electoral vote dispersion based on voting results in each given state.
Yeah I won't ever agree with a pure 1 to 1 ever based on cultural, regional, economical, manufacturing, agricultural, societal, industrial and a gazillion other issues that vary based on state. Because each state is run differently, we can not let four biggest dictate 1/3 of the election alone. If you were to say you supported some split electoral vote where all the votes don't just go to just one candidate, I'd be in support of that. Your argument made no sense in 1787 and it still doesn't.
