Zero argument.
I hate the #ElectoralCollege and most Americans do too. We need to get enough focus on the issue, over a sustained enough period of time, to get it abolished. That's hard to do. Compound that with the perception of a party that thinks it needs the EC to win, and we're screwed.
Some would take this as an argument to detach and vote less.
I take it as an argument to engage harder and #vote more, primaries and general.
