John, here are 4 reasons to support Proposition 113, the National Popular Vote

1. The candidate with the most votes should win:
Five of our 45 Presidents have come into office without winning the most popular votes nationwide. There have also been frequent near-misses. The National Popular Vote winner would have been defeated in four 20th Century elections by a shift of a mere 9,246 votes, 9,212 votes, 20,360 votes, and 1,711 in a single state.

2. Presidents should have to run a 50-state campaign:
The reason why voters in only a few states matter in presidential elections is that most states award all of their electoral votes to the candidate who gets the most votes inside the state. Consequently, candidates have no reason to pay attention to voters unless they live in a state where the race is close. The 2020 presidential campaign has zeroed in on 6 closely divided battleground states, and Colorado is not one of them. Voters in Colorado and most other states are being taken for granted.

3. Every vote should be equal:
Donald Trump became President in 2016 even though he lost the National Popular Vote by 2,868,518 votes. Trump won in the Electoral College because he carried Michigan by 11,000 votes, Wisconsin by 23,000 votes, and Pennsylvania by 44,000 votes. Each of the 78,000 votes in these three states was 36 times more important than the 2,868,518 votes cast elsewhere.

4. The National Popular Vote will increase voter participation:
Turnout in the dozen or so closely divided battleground states was 11% higher in 2016, 16% higher in 2012, and 9% higher in 2008 than the rest of the country. The reason is that presidential candidates make no effort to solicit votes in three-quarters of the states, voters in spectator states realize that their vote is not as important, and voters who are in the minority in each state realize their votes don’t matter anyway.

A YES vote on Proposition 113 in Colorado would bring us a huge step closer to making the National Popular Vote a reality, and ensuring the candidate with the most votes wins the presidency in every election.

When we’re able to share these reasons for supporting the National Popular Vote with voters, they’re in favor of Proposition 113. The problem is, we’re running out of time to reach the undecided voters we need to win.

Thanks for your support,

Yes on Prop 113
National Popular Vote

Proposition 113 is on the ballot in Colorado this November. A YES vote on Prop 113 supports the National Popular Vote, which guarantees the Presidency to the candidate who wins the most votes in all 50 states. Last year, Governor Polis signed the National Popular Vote into law. On November 3rd, Coloradans will be asked to approve the decision of the Legislature and the Governor.
