I’m sorry I wasn’t clear enough. My lopsided comment was about counties, not congressional districts and I think, nationwide, Trump got over 70% of the counties. Most Republicans do. Congressional districts would be a lot closer but it would be an interesting math project for somebody sometime. The problem is CG’s can split through county lines so you’d have to have precinct-by-precinct data to calculate who would win each CG.

[Results if Electoral College votes awarded by Congressional District] it would be an interesting math project for somebody sometime.

An Internet search turned up a partial list of votes by Congressional Districts at the Daily KOS, that is supposed to be updated. This is just straight data without their usual spin or vitriol.

I found this map on HuffPost in an article complaining about how the Republicans want to "rig" the next election by going to the Congressional District plan. They showed a map for the 2012 election under that method which showed Romney winning. Note how the blue areas are restricted to the Metro areas, which is my main bone of contention. (I suspect this election would show an even bigger ECV for Trump using that method.)

Most interesting, they show a map of CDs Romney would have won in those states that went for obama . . .

. . . so at first blush, it looks like the CD method would aid the Republican/rural vote. My gripe is that currently, rural voters in many states might as well stay home as the Metro vote steamrollers all over them. The cd approach would be a fairer - and closer - expression of the voters without using the suicidal Popular Vote method.
