What getting rid of the Electoral College would actually do


(CNN) On Monday night, in a CNN town hall in Jackson, Mississippi, Sen. Elizabeth Warren made some news: She supports getting rid of the electoral college as the method by which we elect presidents. And how much -- really -- would it change how candidates campaign for the nation's top job? To get some answers, I reached out to Sanford Levinson, a constitutional law expert and professor at the University of Texas Law School (Check out this talk Levinson gave at Harvard in 2016 for more of his thoughts on the Electoral College). Cillizza: Warren said she favors abolishing the Electoral College to make "every vote matter." Is that what getting rid of the Electoral College would do?
