I was bored, and decided to see what the last election would look like if we all saw the electoral votes allocated based on the state's popular vote, not a winner take all scenario.
Donald J. Trump, who got 46.1% of the national vote, and secured 56.87% of the electoral vote the last time around, would have only 47.95%.
Hillary R. Clinton, who got just 48.2% of the national vote, and got only 43.12 of the electoral vote, would have gotten only 48.51% of the electoral vote.
Third party candidates, who got 5.7 of the national vote, and no pledged electoral votes (despite 1.30% of the electoral votes going to various people because of faithless electors), would receive 3.53% of the electoral vote.
The House would most likely choose Trump, with a handful of abstentions from Republicans, likewise with Clinton having absentions from Democrats.

The Senate would most likely choose Mike Pence, as he was less controversial than Trump was throughout his career.
Unlike the House, the Senate would have a binary choice:

Mike Pence

or

Tim Kaine

So its highly unlikely a Trump-Kaine administration would happen, or a Clinton-Pence adminstration.
So if we are to keep the E.C, make it proportional, not winner take all.
