About National Popular Vote 501(c)(4)
National Popular Vote, has been leading the campaign to fix the electoral college and elect the president by national popular vote since their founding in 2006 with the creation of the National Popular Vote bill. For the past 17 years National Popular Vote has done extensive lobbying, education, and coalition building advocating for this bill in all 50 states.

Webinar Description
In presidential elections every vote should be equal and the candidate with the most votes in all 50 states and DC should be elected president. That isn’t how the current electoral college system works, and 5 of our 46 presidents have won the election while losing the popular vote. This causes unnecessary division and mistrust, and leads to needless recounts and endless
litigation.

Your Minnesota state legislators have the power and duty to be a part of fixing the electoral college by passing the National Popular Vote bill in 2023. The National Popular Vote bill has been passed by 15 states and DC, representing 195 of the 270 electoral votes needed to make the National Popular Vote bill take effect.
​

Join staff from National Popular Vote to learn how this bill works, how close it is to reality, and how you can be a part of making every vote equal in presidential elections. Write your state legislators in support of this bill now: www.NationalPopularVote.com/MN

National Popular Vote is supported by a broad coalition including the ACLU, Common Cause Minnesota, League of Women Voters, NAACP, People for the American Way, and Stand Up America.
