I read an another article questioning the legality of redistricting for political gains of any kinds by any party just before bed last night and woke up several times in a twist, literally and figuratively, as my mind struggled to process why we would not just revisit the source of the issue/problem.
The electoral college system has been under debate in the since the Constitutional Convention in 1787 when the voting system would certainly be considered primitive. An amendment to abolish the system stalled in the Senate, almost 40 years ago. I have read, but cannot prove that two=thirds of Americans should support replacing it with one of purely popular vote. Admittedly, I Amy be missing something and in the days ahead I hope to explore opposing viewpoints; however, as of this morning, after a topsy-turvy sleep, I am proposing we ban the Electoral College!
One
Person
One vote seems
Simplistic, yet
In an era where
Information flies at
Lightning speed, we don't need it!
Ban the Electoral College,
Every citizen gets
One choice, one vote, one hope
To decide leaders
Who represent
Their wishes,
Hopes, dreams,
Future
