I'm having a hard time seeing where there is bias. The electoral college is winner take all and Democrats have reached well over 270 both times, in fair results. Bias would be using gerrymandered congressional districts to award votes, which would be disproportionate to the state wide vote. It would be very hard to justify Romney receiving 9 electoral votes while only getting 44% of the vote.
