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.

The constitution leave it up to the states to decide how to allocate their electors.
