I mean, it's so preliminary at the moment, but we could probably figure something out...

Cris, what exactly is your methodology here? If this was to become a voting system, I guess individual states' EVs would be assigned by preferential elections within the state, right? I'd be curious to see how this system would've applied to other past elections too.

If we did any sort of electoral college in a presidential election, wouldn't it have to be done by region? I couldn't imagine how we could support it by state, especially when we have 50 states, and a 150 citizens. It is certainly an interesting idea, but my fear is that most regions would become safe for one party or another (it certainly isn't that way now) and we'd end up with one or two competitive regions, which could dull up the game. I'd love to hear more about it though if people can get something concrete going.
