Seriously. The Dimms would own 45% of the electoral votes before the campaigning even gets going. The GOP candidate would have to run the table, which isn’t happening. It would be catastrophic unless states like California and New York go to a Nebraska or Maine model. I just do not see that happening. Why would they?
‘It would be catastrophic unless states like California and New York go to a Nebraska or Maine model.’
in reality, all the states should employ this system; the winner take all first occurred in the completely corrupt election of 1824, when JQ Adams received fewer popular and electoral votes...it was a cynical maneuver to consolidate partisan power for a preferred candidate, and other states had to follow suit in order to avoid losing influence...it will never be abandoned, and look for ME and NE to go to it sometime in the future...
