Obama/Dems won the battle but Repubs are winning the war....

25. Two states already divide up their electoral votes...the courts have no say in it

Nebraska and Maine divide their EVs up by congressional district.

So that's 100% legal. Article II, Section I states that each state's legislature can decide how the electors are chosen for the electoral college.

Each State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct, a Number of Electors, equal to the whole Number of Senators and Representatives to which the State may be entitled in the Congress:

Voting Rights Act is meaningless in this instance since the Constitution supersedes it. You actually do not have a right to vote for President of the United States. If you search that document, you won't find it anywhere. It's your state's laws that tie it's electoral votes to your vote. In America, we vote for President by proxy. He is not directly elected by the people, he's elected by the states...or more specifically he's elected by the electoral college.

The only real possible legal challenge I can imagine would maybe be concerning the ban on pacts. The Constitution forbids states from entering into pacts with each other....unless it has approval of congress. The motive here is to prevent states from conspiring against each other. Maybe you can make the argument that the GOP has a organized effort to string enough states together to rig the electoral college. Maybe you can claim that's a pact or a conspiracy. But that kind of challenge would end up in the Supreme Court, and who knows how that would turn out.
