Yes, these are not voting populations, but for the sake of argument, let's assume that an equal percentage of voters vote in each states. Because each of the states must have a minimum of 3 electoral votes, citizens in very small states have a much greater effect on the election than those in large states do. For instance, my vote is worth (in electoral votes) roughly 1/2 of a person's vote in Delaware, almost 1/3 as much as someone from Alaska and nearly 1/4th as much as someone from Wyoming! It is possible to say that those from smaller states (14 out of the bottom 20 least populous states voted Republican) have far more a say in the election than those in the top ten in population (5 out of the top 10 voted Republican). It did not make a difference this time (a reweighted measure came up with 279 to 259 (approximately, due to rounding error)), but it certainly does make an interesting case for electoral college elimination/reform. It also says that in the current environment, simply writing off a large amount of the smaller states (which the Democrats did) is a real mistake.
UPDATED: Added a link, some grammar and the caveat about voting population.
UPDATED AGAIN: Needed to fix layout in IE.
