    But that’s my point- they’re only majority Republican because enough Republicans are convinced to still vote for them. If they convince enough of them that voting doesn’t work, even if they made the change that legislatures get to choose the president, they are practically guaranteeing the legislature will fall to the Democrats.

        There are if Republicans don’t vote. There are Democrats in those rural districts too. I know because Indiana, where I live, is full of rural districts. Democrats are gaining ground in them too in terms of percentages. They aren’t winning, yet, but if Republicans stop voting?
