As he says, the problem with just concentrating on one type of area (battle ground states or large population centers) is one that 1). might (likely) occur with the NPV and is 2). one that we have now. It would be a bigger issue if we just had one branch of government and if political parties were just in DC. Rs in south dakota will have more of a reason to turn out than to just win SD, and their local parties will do the GOTV.
@JScott65203 Also the representation in the Senate is heavily weighted to the small rural states and that is where the fight is to preserve the ag subsidies, etc. Those rural issues will not go away.
