Nebraska and Maine are the only states that let each U.S. House district elect its own presidential elector. In 2008, Barack Obama carried the Nebraska district that is based in Omaha.

It was one more political miracle that Obama did NOT need the gerrymander district electoral college votes in ME and/or NE to win in the gerrymander electoral college.
The E.C. is a MAJOR minority rule political time bomb — see 1860 — result — about 620,000 DEAD Americans in 1861-1865.
Abolish the timebomb E.C.
Uniform definition of Elector in ALL of the U.S.A. — to even let the colony Electors vote for the Congress and a Prez/VP.
P.R. and A.V.
