The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact looks like the way forward.
Basically, each state can choose how its electors are chosen. Most states use the "Winner Takes All" system, apart from Maine and Nebraska, which allow their vote to be split. But the NPVIC would mean that each state's electors would be chosen based on the candidate with the most votes in the country, and not in the state.
Not every state would have to agree to this, just enough so that the majority (at least 270) of electoral votes would belong to NPVIC states.
As of 8/31/14, The bill has passed 33 state legislative chambers in 22 rural, small, medium, large, red, blue, and purple states with 250 electoral votes. The bill has been enacted by 11 jurisdictions with 165 electoral votes - 61% of the 270 necessary to go into effect.
