Comment: Why not break up the Electoral College into statewide districts much as we elect Congress? Let's use California for an example. Most of the electorate lives in San Francisco, Los Angeles & San Diego but a significant amount of voters live in the more rural areas as well. Why should the metro areas get ALL of the electoral votes by fact of simple majority. Why can't a proportional amount of the Electoral College go to other areas in the State - why a winner takes all process?
