There are many problems with #USA #democracy

Like the stupid #ElectoralCollege

Gore beat Bush in 2000, Clinton beat Trump in 2016. In the popular vote. The EC erased it

Well here's another reason for you to #vote in the #primaries and the general #election:

The #Democrats, if they win enough in November, can kill the EC

It's been a 20 year effort of states agreeing to void the EC if enough agree: the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact

ABOLISH
The Electoral College

I missed the news that #Virginia recently joined the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact meaning that only 48 electoral votes are needed in order to make the #ElectoralCollege irrelevant.

Abolishing the Electoral College

Why this change will not fix American democracy?

In case folks are not aware of the interesting contrast about two #democracies - #US Vs #India : a constitutional amendment proposed in India seeks to expand the legislature and ensure population-based representation. And the southern states (smaller population but wealthier) to oppose it as unfair. In the US, the smaller and poorer states hold disproportionately more power in the #Senate and #ElectoralCollege

Which one is right?
