It would make more sense to allow one EV per congressional district with the elected congressperson acting as that district's elector - winner take all. The structure is already there for it and I think you would get better turnout because red voters in deep blue states would feel as their vote counted more(and vice versa) since it wouldn't be winner take all at the state level. Right now, we essentially have three cities (NYC, Chi, and LA)controlling about 40% of the EV needed to hit 270. This is the very thing the EC was supposed to prevent.
thats how it should be.
