If Utah adopted the "proportional vote" idea and discarded the winner-take-all Electoral College system, Democrats would have a reason to campaign in Utah during presidential elections. And if Democrats campaigned here, the GOP couldn't afford to ignore Utah. Providing a reason for both parties to campaign here is a great reason for adopting proportional voting.
GOP Party Chairman Joe Cannon reportedly believes that with proportional voting, no presidential candidate would ever campaign in Utah. What does he think is happening now?
