I would prefer a proportional democracy. If presidential candidates won the electoral votes of precincts , rather than entire states, the results would have greater fidelity to the will of the electorate. But proportional democracy only works if the whole country switches over to it. Otherwise, you get a constitutional crisis, and that's what we'll have if the Republicans' California scheme succeeds.. We thought we'd killed it, but now it's back -- the Republican attempt to win the 2008 presidential election by changing the rules in California alone. We first heard about it this summer -- Republican lawyers and fundraisers with close ties to Rudy Giuliani were gathering signatures for a ballot initiative. If California's 55 electoral votes were awarded by precinct, about 20 would go to the Republican candidate, likely a disaster for any Democratic candidate. For a thorough telling of the whole story, see Peter Dreier . Noah
