It sounds like this to me...
Currently, the electors cast their votes
for whoever wins the popular vote within the state.

Under the new plan, the electors would cast their votes
for whoever wins the popular vote within the U.S.

You are correct.

This would guarantee presidential power into the hands of the populous states at the expense of others. Why run in Montana when you need to amass a ton of votes in the big cities?

Rev 2 getting closer.

OK, thanks. Sounds like it might work out for them maybe 50% of the time.
