If every state were to be bound by those rules, then electors would
be unanimous. IOW, the popular vote nationwide determines the electors
for every state. This is equivalent to scrapping the Electoral
College, but without the messiness of going through the constitutional
amendment process, which would be required for actually eliminating it.
We are talking about a *national* election. It should be decided by
the number of votes by *people*.
