As Raoul said, if the electors exist, I want them to vote the way the people in my state voted, not the way people in another state voted.


I would prefer a straight popular vote, without any

workarounds. Alas, I think this workaround is the most likely.


And those people in other states have different rules

on things like early voting, absentee voting, whether felons can vote, etc...

You need to Amend if want Popular Vote and then everyone has the same set of voting rules - for president at least. But right now it is 50 individual races with 50 sets of rules. Tying your electors to how the other 49 states voted is insanity and reduces the value of my vote, which was done in my state under the rules of my state.
