The Constitution clearly grants power to make the allocation of a states electoral votes to a states legislature. In Colorado, amendment proposal 36 attempts to make that choice through ballot initiative. IMHO, that is unconstitutional. And frankly, quite stupid too boot! It would weaken the influence of small states. Something the Founders were dead set against.

Some Dem got the required amount of signatures for a referendum.
