So the majority of MD could vote for one candidate but the state’s electorial votes could go to another? Doesn’t make any sense...and typical of a liberal idiot.

This sounds totally UN-democratic. If a large majority in one state votes for one candidate but the electoral votes go to the other candidate, does this make any sense??

The folks pushing this seem to think it will help the Dems but if it has the opposite effect, they will be howling. If a system like this had been in place in 2004 their favorite villains, Bush and Cheney, probably would have gotten a huge majority in the electoral college.
