Well, one could certainly argue that the quantum leaps in communication technology since the establishment of the Electoral College has mitigated to some degree the inability of smaller electorates to be heard or catered to. How much so and what it means for the efficacy and necessity of the college is of course debatable, but I definitely see it as a valid consideration in the debate.
