state republicans better move on making electoral awards go by country rather than state wide.

wining a mojority of individual counties wills the electoral votes. none of this statewide flyover BS.

I doubt that would fly constitutionally... in fact I know it wouldn't. But you could award electoral votes by congressional district with the other two votes going the the state-wide popular vote winner. That way it is still majority rule, but it does not give an advantage to big city political machines with corrupted polling places.

In 2012, instead of Obama winning all 20 EV votes from PA, he would have only won 8 or 10 of them with the rest going to Romney.
