Plan to Abolish Electoral College Gets Closer to Reality
(Or just increase the size of the Congress)
“The #ElectoralCollege — our nation’s bizarre system that hands a few narrowly-divided states the privilege to choose our presidents — has been entrenched for two centuries,” Vox reports. “But a long-game effort from reformers, which has played out quietly in blue states across the country over the past 20 years, has gotten it surprisingly close to toppling.” “And a blue wave in the 2026 midterms could finish the job.”
