It's a movement in a whole lot of states at the moment. Basically, state's invoking their right to chose electorates by a method of their own choosing - in this case, by nationwide popular vote.
...and it unconstitutional
What? The constitution explicitly says that the states may choose their electors in any manner they wish.
He's arguing that since this process disenfranchises the MD voters, it violates the equal protection clause of the Constitution. As the EP Clause is an amendment to the Constitution, it supercedes the clause granting the States power to appoint delegates as they choose.
