Nebraska and Maine differ from most states in their approach to the Electoral College by using a proportional allocation system. While most states award all their electoral votes to the candidate who wins the popular vote statewide, Nebraska and Maine distribute their electoral votes based on congressional district outcomes. This means that a candidate can potentially receive some electoral votes even if they lose the overall state vote, allowing for a more granular representation of voter preferences.
Those two States are not Winner Take All Statesand their Electoral Votes may be split between voting districts as was the case for Nebraska in the 2008 Presidential Election.
