   Let’s be explicitly clear.

   The Electoral College exists because enslavers wanted to count their enslaved in their vote total without freeing them, much less giving them voting rights. That is the one purpose the Electoral College ever served.

   Pro Electoral College is pro white supremacy. Abolish it.

     @Julie we don't need every state to ratify it. 38 states (75%) OR 2/3 of House and Senate. Either is enough, but clearly our divided country that can't get anything passed will struggle here

     @QasimRashid I don’t know how we get small states to ratify the necessary amendment. It would be easier to get statehood for D.C. and Puerto Rico.
