65% of U.S. adults say the way the president is elected should be changed so that the winner of the popular vote nationwide wins the presidency.
Where people live shouldn’t effect their voice in who is president. And the majority of Americans recognize that.
The voice of a New Yorker should not be more important than a Kansan, and a Kansan’s voice should not be more important than a New Yorker.
I’m sure those peo0le in the electoral college’s area of influence agree with you…or do they?
The whole point is that the electoral college is a bad way of determining agreement.
All votes should be equal.
The whole point of the electoral college is to give equitable representation to every state.
