There's the NPVIC which would cut the electoral college out of the process entirely.

Indeed - and I really hope it passes.

I thought about mentioning it in my previous comment. But basically, it's another example that States hold most of the power. The States actually have the power to effectively replace the current system with a national popular vote if they choose.

Other examples are the IRV in Alaska and the district system in Maine and Nebraska.
