 John, a total of FIVE presidents LOST the popular vote but still WON the White House, including TWO in our lifetimes.
Think about this: Donald Trump single-handedly appointed THREE Supreme Court Justices who changed the course of our country even though most voters voted AGAINST him and his right-wing extremism. That's why Democratic leaders are calling to abolish the Electoral College and return power back to the people!  Right now, democracy is facing unprecedented attacks from far-right Republicans. That's why we need to do everything we can to make sure our electoral process is fair, reliable, and actually works. And that means getting rid of outdated processes that take power away from the people are place it in the hands of a few. If you believe that democracy works better when voters are choosing their representatives, then we need you to take action to abolish the Electoral College today. We're rallying a powerful coalition of 24,000 committed Democrats (including at least 38 more from DC) to demand the abolition of the Electoral College. We're counting on you to be part of this critical movement. Together, we can create a future where progress isn't halted by outdated rules. — BSP
