text: The people of America dont like the Electoral college and want something new. Stated in source 2, " Gallup poll in 2000, taken shortly after Al Gore-thanksto the quirks of the electoral college- won the popular vote but lost the presidency, over 60 percent off voters would prefer a dirt election to the kind we have now." In short, people were so unhappy with the election and the way it ended. people would rather have direct voting than to continure with an Electoral college.
