28. that is not at all what the Supreme Court said

States have always had the determination of electors in their hands. Currently they are almost universal in awarding those votes in a "winner take all" block (selected by the political parties) on the basis of the popular vote. They can chose other ways of of doing it (and two states have done so, ME and NE) by changing their own respective state laws. And they have always had that ability.

The court has also ruled unanimously in favor of "faithless elector" state laws -

i.e. they DO have to vote the way they are assigned -- and are subject to penalty by state law for infraction -- per the Supreme Court
