    You’d have to scrap the presidential system then and move to a parliamentary system, since the presidential election is inherently fptp.

    Also be aware that with a pure proportional system you’ll lose greatly in government stability, and I’m telling you as an Italian. The average duration of our governments is like on one point something years

          For that system without popilar vote you’d have to do ranked choice, where the rank is in order of most to least votes. Each state votes all its electors for its top choice first, and then the ranked process goes from there.
