That was intentional. :-)
Even today, the Electoral College gives residents of some states
much more electoral power than others. A Wyoming voter's vote counts
more than 3x as much as Californian's in electing a President.
That's a worse option than giving parents extra votes, imho.
The two "options" are independent. Giving parents extra votes would magnify that inequity — imagine the power of Wyoming voters with large families.
