How would US election play out if they were based on the national popular vote?
Post Body

A few easy thing would be no crazy focus and spending tens of millions on ads for a single state, no sucking up to small groups of voters

How would priorities and traveling the states and raising votes change? Would we see the canidates just go for the large states and ignore small ones.

And what would the results look like in your opinion? Any states you feel night flip because suddenly your vote has meaning

I'm not sure about NY, but there are 2x as many registered Democrats in CA as there are Republicans, which tracks roughly with historical turnout rates. Assuming everyone shows up, Democrats still increase their absolute lead by millions.
