3. The electoral college gives states electoral votes based on how many house members they have, plus two for your Senators. They trust states to elect representatives that would look out for their interest best, so that each state is fairly represented in the election process. However, this system still has its own issues, such as the denser states controlling the most votes (which would also be a problem in a popular vote system).

This system has the exact opposite problem, actually. Less densely populated states are overrepresented because of the way electoral votes are apportioned.
