Re: End the winner takes all?

Two thoughts.

1) If it was majority of states, there likely wouldn't be a tie possible because I imagine DC would still be treated as a state (they correctly have 3 electoral votes).

2) I'm becoming more of a fan of his Maine and Nebraska do their electoral votes. I think it aligns more with the original intent of the electoral college. 2 votes to the overall state winner, and the rest based on who wins each congressional district. I pulled some data with what would happen if this had been in place in prior elections. The only election that would have changed since 2000, is the 2012, Romney would have defeated Obama.
