No more bizarre than democrats lobbying to disenfranchise military votes in Florida.

I think this plot might pass muster constitutionally. But Ohio and other swing states would have to sign on. Why would they do that? In any event the popular vote tends to track the electoral vote quite well. The nightmare would be if there were say 50,000 or less votes separately the candidates. Then every vote in the land would be hand counted, and litigated. This hand counting of ballots is quite insane. Close is good enough.
