Awarding electoral votes on the basis of popular vote. . . that is NATIONAL popular vote. Such a law in a small state counteracts the purpose of the electoral college: to prevent the sheer numbers of populous states to completely overwhelm the election results of small states. If I lived in Wyoming, I wouldn’t want the results of California and New York elections having more influence on determining the electors of Wyoming than the votes of Wyoming citizens.
