Warren probably won some support for the nomination with her remarks, but what can any President really do to change the system as it has existed for over 200 years?

The margins in 2000 and 2016 were slim enough that I don't think either side could really argue that the EC worked or failed in some significant fashion. Somebody posted a simulator earlier in the thread (or possibly in the other EC thread) allowing you to try out different systems on the 2016 election to see how they would've changed the allocation of electors. IIRC, they all still came up favoring the Republicans.
