Most people believe there is nothing that can be done to stop Trump from becoming president, but there is one last chance. The electors of the Electoral College can vote against Trump and award their votes to Hillary Clinton. America should do away with the Electoral College and the way to do that is to revolt against it. The vote of the majority of American people should be the deciding factor of the presidency and nothing else.

The Electoral College was created so that smaller states would have a voice in elections. However, now millions of people in smaller states who cast their ballots for Hillary Clinton do not matter. For example, in my home state of Louisiana 779,535 people voted for Hillary Clinton, but the winner take all Electoral College process means only the votes for Trump counted from our state in the map. In Florida 4.4 million people voted for Hillary Clinton. In Georgia 1.8 million votes for Clinton. In North Carolina 2.1 million votes for Clinton, but the vote of the people is not what decides the election.

The majority of American’s voted for Hillary Clinton and she should be our president. Republicans stole the election from Al Gore in 2000 in the same fashion and there was no change. America should always be a place where the people are the deciding factor on who leads our nation, not a system that can be manipulated for one candidate to win, even when they did not win the popular vote.

America has changed the constitution and its rules along the way to become more progressive and just. An argument will be made that our constitution says this is how we elect leaders. Our constitution also denied women the right to vote, and enslaved black people, we changed that. We saw the error of our ways and adjusted to make our nation a more perfect union. We cannot be a more perfect union if we continue to elect people through a flawed system that allows the winner of the popular vote to yet again not become president. I am asking that you join me in signing this petition to encourage the members of the Electoral College to vote to elect Hillary Clinton President of the United States. The respect, dignity, and future of our nation depends on reforming this now. The time for a political revolution in America is now, we can’t afford to risk four years of Trump.

 Sign this petition and help encourage the Electoral College to fix our broken system.
