Twice this century and five times in our history, America has been lead by the 2nd place candidate. A credible democracy cannot keep elevating the trailing candidate and stay strong.
Moreover, even when the candidate with the most votes wins, we often come dangerously close to electing the person in 2nd place. In 2004 for example, John Kerry only needed to flip 60,000 votes in Ohio to outpace Bush's national lead of over 3 million votes.
In 2020, Biden's 7-million vote margin was nearly overturned by 22,000 voters between Arizona, Wisconsin and Georgia.
These near-miss elections promote lawsuits, recounts, uncertainty, and instability. The United States deserves better.
Thanks to supporters like you, we have already passed 18 states with 209 electoral votes. The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact goes into effect when enacted by states possessing a majority of the presidential electors (270 of 538). In other words, we are only 61 electoral votes from the finish line.
Your contribution will help us pursue the last five or six states needed to bring the National Popular Vote agreement into effect.
