Well, it depends on what they mean by "proportionally".

If they divided electoral votes in some kind of made-up geographic way it would definitely be advantageous to Republicans. That would be unfair though since Repubs tend to dominate large, low population areas. But if they divided electoral votes strictly by the number of actual votes, and did it everywhere, I guess that would be fair.

Republicans tend to dominate sparsely populated areas (ie. the "country") whereas Dem votes tend to be concentrated in smaller, but more densely populated urban areas.

They are not going to do it proportionally by population. Rather each district will receive one vote. So for example one district in the city of Atlanta, with say 300,000 people would get the same EV as one county in Bumblefukk, GA that has 10,000 people. It's blatantly unfair.
