Can anyone figure what the electoral votes would be for each candidate if all states divided their electoral votes this way?

I don't know about this year, but in 2000, it would have given Bush a 20 point or so bump in the EV total. There are many 90% Democrat districts in the cities, but almost no 90% Republican districts to compensate. Our votes are spread out among more districts.

Well we will control the House in the 109th Congress by a margin of 233-201-1.

President Bush won 31 states to Kerry's 19 plus DC.

So in this system Bush would have won 295-243, not deviating very far from our actual EC win of 286-252.
