Dear ____________,

I ask you, in the name of democracy, to support the National Popular Vote Interstates Compact, which would replace the Electoral College with the national popular vote as the means by which the President of the United States is elected.

Why the Electoral College Must Go:

·         It devalues the national popular vote;

·         It gives disproportionate weight to votes coming from less populous states;

·         It discourages voter turnout;

·         It is a disadvantage to third parties.

While there are clear disadvantages to the Electoral College, but there isn’t a single way in which the Electoral College is better than the national popular vote.  Again, I urge you to pass the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.

Sincerely,

______________
