Dark money, rigged maps, and outdated voting systems are derailing our elections. The Freedom to Vote Act is the cure our democracy desperately needs. - 11/03/2024.

1. The electoral college is the biggest hurdle.

With a nationwide popular vote we would have a much more even election season

3. I completely agree, elections results should depend on the majority of Americans who voted for them

Nothing else makes sense - and that includes to the rest of the world. But Republicans oppose getting rid of the outmoded Electoral College since that's the only way that they can "win."

NC is the example of gerrymandering

4. I think that many states are affected to some extent.

Here in New York, in the last election, we were expected to vote twice. The first election was for governor/lieutenant governor only since they were still arguing about district lines. So we had to go back and vote for the other seats/candidates when that was finally decided.
