This is a very bad idea. It sounds good, because it is better than the current system, but it leave FPTP in tact. The person who wins a majority of the popular vote *should* be president, but there are many times when nobody wins a majority. Allocating the electors proportionally based on the popular vote would make more sense and be much more democratic.
