No Neal, the same applies to CA. Me thinks winner-takes-all is inappropriate, no matter if it's a red or blue state. I can understand that the electoral system was set up to somehow compensate for divergent interests of the coastal densely populated areas and the rural states, still the composition of the electoral college should somehow reflect the ratio of red and blue votes. Anything else is, hm, a joke.
