This would also prevent the smaller "red" and "blue" states from being virtually ignored in favor of the larger "battleground" states.

I could care less about Bush or Kerry visiting my state.
​
What I care about is the issues, and I think there's a possibility, at least, that the state-centric eletoral college means the presidential candidates have to prioritize local issues of a couple of states over general issues of the whole nation.
​
But maybe I'm wrong?
