Being a helpful advocate for National Popular Vote this week

 

We know that whatever happens over the next few days is bound to cause a lot of people to talk about the Electoral College and our current system of electing the President. This email is intended to be a quick reference guide for helping you navigate conversations with family, friends, and co-workers about the way we can elect the President by 2024. 

As supporters of the National Popular Vote plan, we need all of you to help spread the word that:
1. Yes, we can have a national popular vote for President by 2024 and make 1 person, 1 vote a reality in Presidential elections. 
2. No, abolishing the Electoral College isn't the only way to change the system. 
3. Everyone's voice is needed in order to make National Popular Vote a reality by 2024, write your legislators in support of this bill at www.NationalPopularVote.com/Write 


Remember - these top 3 arguments for a National Popular Vote: 
1. Whoever gets the most votes should win. 

2. Every vote should be equal. 
3. Candidates should have to campaign in all 50 states.
