More states should adopt electoral vote allocation by CD. Makes things interesting.

I think this could have disastrous consequences. It will encourage A LOT of 3rd party and independent candidates since they can win electoral votes by simply winning at least one congressional district. This in turn dramatically raises the probability of the election being decided by the House. Sure, it's constitutional, but I don't think it's a good precedent.
