For a while, Republicans in Red States were pondering laws for an electoral college system within the states. That was what was apparently undone by the supreme court case mentioned in this article?

My solution for Red States right now, in order to prevent incoming former blue state residents from ruining things, is to enact a limiting constitution at every level of gov’t. Just like Fed Gov is supposed to be limited, pass constitutions that limit what the State can do, the county can do, the city can do. Then the lefties can’t vote in ridiculous programs like those that destroyed their previous states.

****************
Why not just require that each state’s electors, to the Electoral Congress, vote how each Congressional District in each state voted.

That’s true representation, just like the Congressional districts elect from their district to the House of Representatives. Electoral votes would follow suit.

Winner takes all dies.

Voter fraud in large urban areas loses its statewide impact. Most states would be mostly red.

Candidates would have to appeal to everyone, not just the large metropolitan areas.
