Sure it does. Lets say each state only had one vote per representative, instead of one vote per rep and senator. I'd have to do the math, but I'm pretty sure Gore and Kerry both would have won.

Lets say the Electoral College was done by representatives only. Wyoming residents and Californians would be more or less equal, since congressional districts are about the same size (Yes, I know Wyoming's population is smaller than a standard CD, but lets ignore that for now.) If it was just by reps, everyone would have about the same vote. But since it's done by senators too, those few thousand people in Wyoming get two extra votes tacked onto their total, while the millions and millions of people in California get the same extra two votes tacked on. That means the people in Wyoming get more of a vote. Make sense now?
