Classic, it a matter of the devil you know vs the one you don't (gerrymandering).
I see very little or no benefit by a change such as you suggest.

In theory, there's nothing more simple than just counting all votes to see who won the State.

Look at the Iowa Caucus vote this year... first Romney wins, and then there's a local revision and Santorum wins.
Why do you think that won't happen with a proportional vote, with more cooks in the (local district) kitchen.

Besides, for me, if the Republicans want it they must think it would be to their benefit. So I'm ag'in !
