Itâs an elegant system where there is a balance between small and large states.
I don’t think we’re on the same page...I’m questioning why a state having a 51-49 Dem to Rep percentage after the votes are tallied, are the EV’s not distributed in the same percentage...
Short answer: that’s up to each State.
Longer answer: A State that would divide its electors in a proportional system would lose some of their power. If, for example, Ohio were to do that, as a Democrat, you wouldn’t need to campaign there knowing you would pick up 14 or 15 electors minimum. You would focus on a winner take all State.
So the States don’t want to dilute their influence by going proportionally.
Now the Democrats have been trying to convince the States to join together and go for a proportional system based on the over all popular vote, but that would again give greater influence to the urban areas, and no rural State is interested in joining that system. The heavily urban, usually Democrat leaning, States are in favor of the idea, but not if they lose some power to the rural States.
So it’s not going to happen in the foreseeable future.
