Ever since 2000, where the Democratic process on elections didn't work, both parties have tried to use the proportional voting mechanism to their advantage like we saw in 2004 with CO and now we are seeing this in CA.  I believe no matter if it qualifies, I think it will fail.  However, when redistricting happens in 2010 when proportional voting should mean something, I think this will be the perfect time to call a ratifying convention to change the constitution to proportional voting and get rid of this electoral college. Or we will be facing these ballot initiatives for the foreseeable future.
