This is what will happen every single time if you let a population decide its own fate. The bottom line is that half of the population is less intelligent than average, and in a democracy it only takes that half of the population + 1 to overrule everybody else. There's a reason no democracy survived through the millennia, but monarchies did.

If the Electoral College is viewed by the majority as "getting in their way," they will remove it sooner or later - further illustrating the problem with direct citizen participation.
