The Michigan Republican Party on Saturday endorsed a plan to shift
the way Michigan allots electoral votes from a winner-take-all system to
one based on the winner of the state's Congressional districts, a plan
that would benefit Republican candidates, the Detroit News reported.
By a 1,370-132 margin at the party convention in Lansing, GOP members
approved a resolution backing a proposal from Rep. Pete Lund, R-Shelby
Township, to divvy-up 14 of the state's 16 electoral votes according to
which candidate got the most votes in each congressional district. The
other two would go to the state-wide vote total winner.
