It was created as a compromise to keep less populated states and slaveholders happy and get them to ratify the Constitution.
The mention of “slaveholders” is very obviously a deceitful effort to suggest that the Electoral College is based on racism. It's no surprise to hear this from you; it's one of the lies that your kind just can't help repeating, even though you know it's a lie, and you know that everyone who hears it will know that it's a lie. Your kind just can't help yourselves.
As for less populated states, of course that was the intent, as well as part of the need to get them to support the Constitution. Why should the people of any less-populated state have not wanted a system of government that allowed their needs to be heard and represented as well as those of the more densely-populated states?
Do you see that you are dealing with the uneducated who never heard of federalism and do not know what a federal republic is? A Hollywood celebrity told them it was slaveholders....but what’s amazing is how tenaciously they hold to it. I think it’s because it’s what they wanted to believe in the first place.
