It's not at all unconstitutional, as a matter of fact the constitution allows for it. It wasn't until the ammendment allowing for the popular election of senators that the electoral college became obsolete (17th ammendment, I think). Until then, the senate was the state's voice in how the federal government was run, and now the states have no say in the federal government. Up until that ammendment, the electoral college was relevant, now it isn't and should be dissolved.
