Sen. Elizabeth Warren , a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination, at an event in Memphis on March 17. By Deanna Paul and Deanna Paul Reporter covering national and breaking news Email Bio Follow Michael Brice-Saddler Michael Brice-Saddler General Assignment Reporter Email Bio Follow March 19 at 9:00 AM Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Monday endorsed ending the electoral college, arguing for a system where “every vote matters.
On Sunday, Colorado joined 11 other states and the District of Columbia in the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. Members pledge to give their electoral votes to whichever candidate wins the national popular vote. Reed Hundt, chairman and co-founder of Making Every Vote Count, told The Washington Post last month that changing the electoral college delegate procedures in enough states could be difficult. The remaining states where the initiative may pass are smaller and left-leaning, he said.
In the 2012, 2016 and 2020 elections, nearly 40 states, with about 80 percent of the country’s population, were or will be ignored by both candidates, Hundt said.
