If the Democrats support the Nebraska/Maine model because it reflects "the voice of the people", how can they support the initiative to have every state cast its EVs for the popular vote winner?

If the Republicans believe the state's electoral votes should represent the wishes of the majority of its people, otherwise their voice is diluted, then they should be supporting a "winner take all" allocation.

1. If the Constitution specifies Electoral Votes will be used to select our President, then it should be Electoral Votes -- not the popular vote.

2. If the Constitution allows a state to distribute its EV by Congressional District and a state chooses to do so, I've no problem with it.
