consider this :

if all you need is to get 51 percent of each district’s votes (or whateverpercentage wins in the vote splitup) in 51 percent of the districts to get ALL of the state’s Electoral College ‘votes’, then a mere 25% of the population can (theoretically) determine the outcome in a national election (with a block like California’s (55 large) then being a major factor overriding/nullifying numerous smaller states)

Its why Gerrymandering districts is such a significant issue, and why illegal aliens voting and election frauds gains can be greatly magnified.

I am not for getting rid of the electoral college system, but perhaps making the votes NOT have to be cast together as all or none into the federal counts.

I am not for getting rid of the electoral college system, but perhaps making the votes NOT have to be cast together as all or none into the federal counts.

Maine and Nebraska have such a system and it should go national: 2 electoral votes to the statewide winner; 1 to the winner of each congressional district.

This system should go national not only as an alternative for NPV arguments, but because it demonstrably works. Trump won a district in Maine in 2016 and ObaMao won one in Nebraska in 2008.
