Electoral votes are established as ONE for each USRep and Senator.
A truly representative solution would be to cast electoral votes by congressional district, plus the two that reflect senators can be cast in accordance with the popular vote within the state.
That fixes a lot of crap, quick, fast and in a hurry.

This is great!!! I was hoping something like this would happen. Now those 9 states can implement my plan.

Voting is broken down by county. You win the county you get a point. Whoever wins the most counties gets the electoral vote.

Takes cheating out of the equation because who cares if you get 150% of the vote. It’s still only worth a point. This should also be used by the Republicans for disenfranchisement.

You see, if Philly wants to vote 150%, their voters are not disenfranchised. On the other hand, voting at 150%, disenfranchises the rest of the state as their vote no longer counts.

Beauty of this? No need to change the constitution. It is done on the state level. Electoral votes remain the same.
